Prime factorization of $$$958$$$
Your Input
Find the prime factorization of $$$958$$$.
Solution
Start with the number $$$2$$$.
Determine whether $$$958$$$ is divisible by $$$2$$$.
It is divisible, thus, divide $$$958$$$ by $$${\color{green}2}$$$: $$$\frac{958}{2} = {\color{red}479}$$$.
The prime number $$${\color{green}479}$$$ has no other factors then $$$1$$$ and $$${\color{green}479}$$$: $$$\frac{479}{479} = {\color{red}1}$$$.
Since we have obtained $$$1$$$, we are done.
Now, just count the number of occurences of the divisors (green numbers), and write down the prime factorization: $$$958 = 2 \cdot 479$$$.
Answer
The prime factorization is $$$958 = 2 \cdot 479$$$A.
