Given the number:

294

Let's determine the prime factors of the given number.

Prime factors are factors which can only be divisible by 1 and itself.

Let's first list the factors of 294:

1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 42, 49, 98, 147 and 294.

The prime factors from the listed factors above are:

2, 3, 7

Now, to write the prime factorization of 294, we have:

2 × 3 × 7 × 7 = 294

We can see that the factor 7 occurs twice.

Therefore, the factor repeated the most is 7 .

ANSWER:

• 2 × 3 × 7 × 7

• Factor repeated most is 7.
