To calculate the prime factors of 250 enter a number in the field below and press decompose:
The factorization of 250 is equal to 2 × 5 × 5 × 5. We find these factors by successively dividing 250 by the prime numbers until we obtain the prime factors.
The prime factor tree of 250 is an illustration that shows how the number 250 is decomposed into its fundamental prime factors, as 2, 3 and 5. This visual representation helps you understand the underlying structure of the number and how it is formed from smaller prime numbers.
Look at the following tree:
| 250 | ||||||||||
| 2 | 125 | |||||||||
| 5 | 25 | |||||||||
| 5 | 5 | |||||||||
Start by dividing the number 250 by the smallest prime numbers, starting with the smallest prime, which is 2.
250 ÷ 2 = 125
Agora, continue dividindo o resultado da etapa anterior por números primos menores, até que não seja mais possível fazer divisões inteiras.
125 ÷ 5 = 25
25 ÷ 5 = 5
Now, the numbers by which you divided 250 and got integer results are the prime factors of 250. In this case, we have 2, 5, 5 and 5.
Write the factorization of the number 250 using its prime factors. The full factorization of 250 is:
250 = 2 x 5 × 5 × 5
These steps show how the number 250 can be factored into its prime components, which is helpful in understanding its structure and mathematical properties.
