• Prime Factorization of 324: $2^2\times3^4$

Factors by Division Method

To calculate the factors of 324, start by dividing the numbers by the smallest prime number, which is 2. If the number is not divisible by 2, proceed to the next prime number, such as 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, and continue this process until you reach 1.

Step 1: 324 ÷ 2 = 162
Step 2: 162 ÷ 2 = 81
Step 3: 81 ÷ 3 = 27
Step 4: 27 ÷ 3 = 9
Step 5: 9 ÷ 3 = 3
Step 6: 3 ÷ 3 = 1

In step 6, we have reached to 1, and so, the process is stopped.

• Prime Factors of 324: $2\times2\times3\times3\times3\times3$

• Prime Factorization of 324: $2^2\times3^4$

The factors will be all the multiples of 1, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 9, 27, 81, 162, 324

Calculating all the factors:
2 = 1 x 2
3 = 1 x 3
4 = 1 x 2 x 2
6 = 2 x 3
9 = 1 x 9
12 = 1 x 2 x 2 x 3
18 = 2 x 9
27 = 1 x 27
36 = 1 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3
54 = 2 x 27
81 = 1 x 81
108 = 1 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3
162 = 1 x 162
324 = 1 x 324

Finally Factors of 324 = 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 27, 36, 54, 81, 108, 162, 324
