a prime factorization
An expression that shows a number expressed as a product of prime numbers.
Multiply prime numbers or prime factors to find their product.
Yes. Composite numbers can be written as the product of prime factors.
Numbers that have 2 factors are prime numbers; Numbers that have 4 factors are either: * the cube of a prime; or * the product of two different primes; Numbers that have 8 factors are either: * a prime to the power 7; * the product of a prime cubed and different prime; * the product of three different primes.
The expression 2x3x4x5 can be simplified to 120. The number 120 has the least number of factors because it is a product of consecutive prime numbers (2, 3, and 5). When a number is a product of distinct prime numbers, it will have fewer factors compared to numbers with repeated prime factors. In this case, 120 only has 16 factors, making it the least among numbers with the same number of prime factors.
