The factor pairs of 480 are 1 x 480, 2 x 240, 3 x 160, 4 x 120, 5 x 96, 6 x 80, 8 x 60, 10 x 48, 12 x 40, 15 x 32, 16 x 30, and 20 x 24.

The proper factors of 480 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 20, 24, 30, 32, 40, 48, 60, 80, 96, 120, 160, and 240 or,

if the definition you are using excludes 1, they are 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 20, 24, 30, 32, 40, 48, 60, 80, 96, 120, 160, and 240.

The prime factors of 480 are 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, and 5. Note: There is repetition of these factors, so if the prime factors are being listed instead of the prime factorization, usually only the distinct prime factors are listed.

The distinct prime factors of 480 are 2, 3, and 5.

The prime factorization of 480 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 or, in index form (in other words, using exponents), 2^5 x 3 x 5.

As a product of its prime factors in exponents: 2^5*3*5 = 480
480 is a composite number because it has factors other than 1 and itself. It is not a prime number.
