Find the Prime Factorization 480

$480$

Step 1

$480$ has factors of $2$ and $240$ .

$2 \cdot 240$

Step 2

$240$ has factors of $2$ and $120$ .

$2 \cdot 2 \cdot 120$

Step 3

$120$ has factors of $2$ and $60$ .

$2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 60$

Step 4

$60$ has factors of $2$ and $30$ .

$2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 30$

Step 5

$30$ has factors of $2$ and $15$ .

$2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 15$

Step 6

$15$ has factors of $3$ and $5$ .

$2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 2 \cdot 3 \cdot 5$
