2736 expressed in terms of its prime factors is, 24 x 32 x 19.
To find the prime factors of any number then divide the number by prime numbers of increasing value. When a Prime number wholly divides the original number repeat the process with the same prime number but each time with the new quotient until complete division does not occur. Repeat with a prime number of higher value until the final quotient is 1.
Example : Express 100 in terms of its prime factors.
100 ÷ 2 = 50
50 ÷ 2 = 25
25 ÷ 2 complete division does not occur
25 ÷ 3 complete division does not occur
25 ÷ 5 = 5
5 ÷ 5 = 1 quotient = 1, factorisation is complete.
100 = 2 x 2 x 5 x 5 = 22 x 52.
