Divide by prime numbers until you've found all the prime numbers that, when multiplied together, equal 180.


\n" ); document.write( "It's best to begin by dividing by the lowest possible prime. It's even, so divide by 2.


\n" ); document.write( "180/2 = 90. So the first prime factor is 2.


\n" ); document.write( "90/2 = 45. Prime factors so far (2*2)


\n" ); document.write( "45/5 = 9. Prime factors so far (2*2*5)


\n" ); document.write( "9/3=3. 3 is a prime number so that gives 3*3.


\n" ); document.write( "Prime factorization of 180 is 2*2*3*3*5
\n" ); document.write( "
