Step 2: Move to the next integer. Continue dividing and noting numbers that divide evenly.

Thus, the factors of 1920 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 16, 20, 24, 30, 32, 40, 48, 60, 64, 80, 96, 120, 128, 160, 192, 240, 320, 384, 480, 640, 960, and 1920.
 

Prime Factors: The prime numbers 2,3, and 5 are factors of 1920.

Prime Factorization Steps:
 

Step 1: Divide 1920 by the smallest prime number, 2:
1920÷2=960 
 

Step 2:Repeat division by 222 until it no longer divides:
960÷2=480, 480÷2=240, and so on.
 

Step 3: Continue with the next smallest primes, 333 and 555.
