Solved by pluggable solver: Factor any number
270 is NOT a prime number: 270 = 2 * 3 * 3 * 3 * 5

Work Shown

270 is divisible by 2: 270 = 135 * 2.
135 is divisible by 3: 135 = 45 * 3.
45 is divisible by 3: 45 = 15 * 3.
15 is divisible by 3: 15 = 5 * 3.
5 is not divisible by anything.
This calculation used this Prime Factorization Algorithm.
