2 and 3
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
The prime factors of 48 are: 2, 3
The prime factorization of 48 is found by breaking it down into its prime components: ( 48 = 2^4 \times 3^1 ). Therefore, the prime numbers that multiply to give 48 are 2 and 3. There is no single "prime number of 48," but these two primes are its factors.
48 has only 2 prime factors, not 8!
No because 48 has more than two factors and so therefore it is a composite number
The prime factors are: 2, 3
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.
To find the prime factors of 48, start with any two factors of 48 and keep factoring until all the factors are prime. 6 X 8 = 48 2 X 3 X 2 X 4 = 48 2 X 3 X 2 X 2 X 2 = 48 The prime numbers in 48 are 2 X 2 X 2 X 2 X 3.
