Prime factorization of 925

Divide by the smallest prime that fits, and keep going until the quotient is 1:

925 ÷ 5 = 185
185 ÷ 5 = 37
37 ÷ 37 = 1

The primes you divided by give 925 = 5² × 37. From the exponents you can also count the factors without listing them: (2 + 1) × (1 + 1) = 6.

Properties of 925

  • 925 is a composite number.
