Best Answer

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.

Could 2x4x5x9x11 be the prime factorization of a number?

No because all the numbers in a prime factorization must be prime. The number 9 is not prime. It should be 3 *3. same thing with 4, should be 2*2. So what would be a prime factorization is 2x2x2x3x3x5x11.


Is 2x9x11 a prime factorization?

No - since 9 is not a prime number, it would be reduced even further. The prime factorization in question would be equal to 2 x 32 x 11 = 198.
