    The largest prime factor of 12 is 3.

    Start from the smallest prime number and make your way up until you can't anymore.

    Example:

    Start with 2, which is the smallest prime number.

    12 : 2 = 6.

    It's evenly divided by 2 but 6 is NOT a prime number, so you need to keep going.

    6 : 2 = 3.

    3 IS a prime number, and that is your answer.

    12 = 2 * 2 * 3.
