Answer:

  • 1265 = 5*11*23

------------------------------------------

Find prime factors of 1265.

We see it is divisible by 5 since ends with 5:

  • 1265/5 = 253

253 is not divisible by 3 or 9 since the sum of digits is not divisible by 3 or 9. It is not divisible by 7 (since 25 - 3*2 = 19 is not divisible by 7) but divisible by 11, since the sum of digits in odd places is same as the digit in the even place (recall divisibility by 11):

  • 253/11 = 23

23 is a prime number so no more factors.

Hence the prime factorization of 1265 is:

  • 1265 = 5*11*23
