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.
Find the prime factors of each. Prime factors of 10 are 2 and 5 Prime factors of 15 are 3 and 5 Multiply one number by the prime factors unique to the other: 10x3 or 15x2 =30
Work out if they have any factors, other than the number 1 and themselves. If they do not they are prime.
The prime factors of 8 are 2, 2 and 2 or 23 The prime factors of 14 are 2 and 7 or 2*7 LCM = highest prime factors multiplied = 23*7 = 56
The factors of 233357 are: 1 233357 The prime factors are: (233357 is a prime number)
All numbers have factors. Some factors are prime numbers. These are known as prime factors. 2 and 3 are prime factors of 6. 1 and 6 are not prime factors of 6.
Multiply prime numbers or prime factors to find their product.
I assume you are asking how do you work out the factors of a prime number. A prime number by definition only has itself and 1 as factors.
Either one will work. If you're listing factors, use factors. If you're using prime factorization, use prime factors.
The factors of 12 are: 1,2,3,4,6. The prime factors are the prime numbers in the factors. So: 1,2,3 are the prime factors of 12.
where is it
1, 2, 4, 8, 16 2 is prime.
Find the prime factors of each. Prime factors of 10 are 2 and 5 Prime factors of 15 are 3 and 5 Multiply one number by the prime factors unique to the other: 10x3 or 15x2 =30
Prime factors are factors that are also prime numbers.
7420 = 2 x 2 x 5 x 7 x 53. These are the prime factors. You should be able to work out the composites...
Prime factors are numbers that are: prime, and multiply to make the number you want, in this case 75. 75 as a product of prime factors would be, 3 x 5 x 5; if you work this out, the result is 75.
17 is a prime number because it has only two factors which are itself and one.
Work out if they have any factors, other than the number 1 and themselves. If they do not they are prime.
