Since it is not divisible, move to the next prime number.
The next prime number is $$$37$$$.
Determine whether $$$3071$$$ is divisible by $$$37$$$.
It is divisible, thus, divide $$$3071$$$ by $$${\color{green}37}$$$: $$$\frac{3071}{37} = {\color{red}83}$$$.
The prime number $$${\color{green}83}$$$ has no other factors then $$$1$$$ and $$${\color{green}83}$$$: $$$\frac{83}{83} = {\color{red}1}$$$.
Since we have obtained $$$1$$$, we are done.
Now, just count the number of occurences of the divisors (green numbers), and write down the prime factorization: $$$3071 = 37 \cdot 83$$$.
Answer
The prime factorization is $$$3071 = 37 \cdot 83$$$A.
