91 cannot be in the prime factorization of any number because it is not a prime number itself.
I WANTED TO Know WHY NOT does it
A prime number has no factors other than 1 and the number itself. If prime factorization of a number reveals one or more additional prime factors, the number is a composite.
A number which has only two factors is called a prime number. Prime factorization of 46 is 2x23x1. Clearly from prime factorization of 46, we get to know that 46 is divisible by 1,2,23 and also by 46. There are four factors of 46, so it is not a prime number.
In general, you cannot.
The given sentence isn't a prime factorization since 9 isn't prime. The correct prime factorization of 495 is 3 x 3 x 5 x 11
I define prime factorization as "expressing a given number as the product of its prime factors." I don't know how to make it easier than that.
When no other number can be divided into it except 1
When all of the factors are prime.
The prime numbers total the number you started with. 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 36
I am sorry to say I don't THINK anyone know who invented/created/made prime factorization sorry :(
All composite numbers can be expressed as unique products of prime numbers. This is accomplished by dividing the original number and its factors by prime numbers until all the factors are prime. A factor tree can help you visualize this. Example: 210 210 Divide by two. 105,2 Divide by three. 35,3,2 Divide by five. 7,5,3,2 Stop. All the factors are prime. 2 x 3 x 5 x 7 = 210 That's the prime factorization of 210.
