Collecting both numbers from every successful division gives the complete list: 1, 3, 9, 107, 321 and 963.

Prime factorization of 963

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

963 ÷ 3 = 321
321 ÷ 3 = 107
107 ÷ 107 = 1

The primes you divided by give 963 = 3² × 107. From the exponents you can also count the factors without listing them: (2 + 1) × (1 + 1) = 6.

Properties of 963

  • 963 is a composite number.
