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.

Is it true or false prime factorization renames a composite number as the product of prime factors?
True(Prime factorization is to write a composite number as a product of its prime factors).
What does 'products of its primes' mean?
To write a composite whole number as the product of its prime factors is to write its prime factorization.
How many ways can you write a composite number as a product of prime numbers?
I'm not sure what you mean. But the factorization of a composite number into prime factors is unique, up to the ordering of the primes.
Can you write the composite number 300 as a product of prime numbers?
As a product of its prime factors in exponents: 22*3*52 = 300
What is it called when you write a composite number as a product of its primes?
It is called the prime factorisation (or prime decomposition) of the composite number.
Is 28 prime or composite if it is composite write the prime factorization of the number?
composite and 2*2*7 = 28
Determine if the given number is prime if the number is composite write it has a prime factor 295?
295 is composite - 5 x 59.
Can prime numbers be written as a product of composite?
Yes. Do a factor tree to find the prime factors. Then write down all of those times together equals your original number.e.g. 12=6*2=2*2*3=which is written as two squared*3
Is 35 a prime number or a composite number?
35 is a composite number because it has 1,5,7 number that can equal 35 and if u don't understand what composite means it means if u have more then 1 then its composite.Prime is only 1*35=35 thats prime.
How do you write a number as a product of its prime factors?
write the number 14as a product of prime factor?
How do write 525 as a product of prime factors?
write the prime factorization of the number. simple as that.
How do you write a composite number as a product of prime factors?
That's known as the prime factorization. It's the bottom branch of the factor tree. The prime factorization of 210 is 2 x 3 x 5 x 7.
