First of all try with the smallest Prime number, which is 2.
Does 2 go into 24?
Yes, 2 goes into 24 to give 12.
So, 24 = 2 x 12.
Now we have to check if 2 also goes into 12.
2 goes into 12 to give 6 i.e. 12 = 2 x 6
or 24 = 2 x 12 = 2 x 2 x 6.
The process continues till the number can be evenly divided by a prime number.
Now, 6 can be evenly divided by 2 to give 3. Since 3 is prime so factorization ends here.
Prime factorization of 24 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3.
Yes.
The prime factorization for 24 (with exponents) is: 23 x 3
2x2x2x3 = 24
The prime factorization of 24 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3. The number represented by that prime factorization is 24.
prime factorization of 24 are 2*2*2*3

No - the prime factorization for 48 is 24 x 3.
2 x3x4 is not the prime factorization of 24 because 4 is not a prime number
Prime Factorization of 16 and 24The prime factorization of 16 is:2 X 2 X 2 X 2The prime factorization of 24 is:2 X 2 X 2 X 3
24
The prime factorization of 24 is 2x2x2x3 or 23x3.
The greatest prime factor they have in common is 2.
