The number 20 is a composite number so, it is possible to factorize it. In other words, 20 can be divided by 1, by itself and at least by 2 and 5. A composite number is a positive integer that has at least one positive divisor other than one or the number itself. In other words, a composite number is any integer greater than one that is not a prime number.

The prime factorization of 20 = 22•5.

The prime factors of 20 are 2 and 5.
