Step 1: Start by dividing 245 by the smallest prime number, which is 2. However, 245 is not divisible by 2.
Step 2: Next, divide 245 by the next smallest prime number, which is 3. 245 ÷ 3 = 81 remainder 2.
Step 3: Continue dividing the quotient from the previous step by the next smallest prime number, which is 3. 81 ÷ 3 = 27.
Step 4: Divide the quotient from step 3 by 3 again. 27 ÷ 3 = 9.
Step 5: Divide the quotient from step 4 by 3 again. 9 ÷ 3 = 3.
Step 6: Divide the quotient from step 5 by the next smallest prime number, which is 3. 3 ÷ 3 = 1.
Step 7: We have reached 1, which means we have found all the prime factors of 245.

First, we can start by dividing 245 by the smallest prime number, which is 2. However, 2 does not divide evenly into 245, as 2 does not divide into odd numbers.
Next, let's try dividing 245 by the next prime number, which is 3. We find that 3 does not divide evenly into 245 either.
Now, let's try dividing 245 by the next prime number, which is 5. We find that 5 does divide evenly into 245, as 245 divided by 5 equals 49.
So far, we have found one prime factor of 245, which is 5.
We are left with 49 after dividing 245 by 5. Now, we need to find the prime factors of 49.
First, let's try dividing 49 by 2. We find that 49 is not divisible by 2.
Next, let's try dividing 49 by 3. We find that 49 is not divisible by 3 either.
We can try dividing 49 by 5. However, 49 is not divisible by 5.
Finally, let's try dividing 49 by 7. We find that 49 divided by 7 equals 7.
So, the prime factorization of 245 is 5 * 7 * 7, which can be written as 5 * 7^2.
