    Gonna give u how to do it and then u sdo it for each one:

    You have to try all prime numbers less or equal than the sqrt (number).

    Example: 285, sqrt (285) = 16.88194301613413

    Try all below 16: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11 and 13:

    285 / 3 = 95, 95 / 5 = 19 (19 is prime, end),

    285 = 3*5*19, the prime factors are 3, 5 and 19

    25 = 5*5

    38=2*19

    36 = 2^2 * 3^2, so 2 and 3.

    That's why I let you do the last one
