Prime Factorisation


 * Prime factorisation is an important number theory. It focuses on finding all the prime factors of a particular number.
 * A prime number is a number that is only divisible 1 and the number itself. Some examples are: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, etc.
 * A factor of a number is a whole number that can divide a given number completely. For example, 2 is a factor of 10 because 10 can be divided completely by 2 i.e. 10/2 = 5.
 * A prime factor is a number that can divide a given number completely, with a condition that the factor is a prime number itself. For example, 3 is a prime factor of 30 since 30 can be divided by 3 completely (30/3 = 10) and 3 itself is a prime number.
