2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 = 48
2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3
The longest factor string is 2x2x2x3x13. It is always best to list your factor string from the least to greatest number.
A factor = a number which can be divided into the given number with no remainder so yes 48/24 = 2
The longest factor string of any composite number is its prime factorization.
2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 = 48
2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 = 48
A factor = a number which can be divided into the given number with no remainder so yes, 12 is a factor of 48 (as is 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24 and 48)
Yes.
The number of numbers in the string; how long it is.
A factor string is a name for a number written as a product of two or more factors. In a factor string, 1 may not be used as a factor. For example, a factor string for 24 is 2 X 3 X 4, or 2 3 4.:0
24 is a factor of 48. But, 24 is not a prime factor because it is a composite number.
The greatest number in that set is 48. The greatest factor of any positive number is the number itself. The greatest common factor of that set is 12.
