48 has only two prime factors: 2 and 3.
There are 2 prime factors of 48. The prime factorization of 48 is: 24 x 3 = 48
Factors of 48 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 48; of these the only primes are 2 and 3, all other factors of 48 not being prime.
There is not one. A prime number has exactly two factors, 1 and itself. The only way that a prime number could be divisible by 48 is if 48 were a prime number, which it is not.
The prime factors are: 2,3
42, 48 are the two numbers bigger than 40 that have 2 and 3 as their only prime factors.
The prime factors of 48 are: 2, 3
48 has only 2 prime factors, not 8!
The prime factors are: 2, 3
No because 48 has more than two factors and so therefore it is a composite number
To find the HCF of these two numbers, you have to break them down into their prime factors: 48 = 2x2x2x2x3 76 = 2x2x19 The next step is to identify any common prime factors. In this case both numbers have two 2s as prime factors. Multiply these together and you get 4. Therefore 4 is the HCF of 48 and 76.
To find the HCF of two numbers you first need to break them down into their prime factors. In this case we get: 36 = 2x2x3x3 48 = 2x2x2x2x3 The next step is to identify any common prime factors. In this case, both numbers have two 2s and a 3 as prime factors. Multiply these together and you get 12. Therefore, the HCF of 36 and 48 is 12.
