If there are no numbers to divide - not even 1 - then you have made a mistake.
The process is known as prime factorization. There are many methods to notate this. Factor trees, rainbows, continuous division, Euclid's algorithm, etc.
Dividing a number by prime numbers until you get to 1. The prime factorization of 210 by continuous division is 210/2 = 105/3 = 35/5 = 7/7 = 1 2 x 3 x 5 x 7 = 210
20/2 = 10 10/2 = 5 5/5 = 1 20 = 2*2*5
The only name is factorization.
you just divide by the prime number
No. Prime factorization is the method of expressing a number as the product of prime numbers. So, Prime factorization of 42 = 2x3x7
This action is called DIVISION. The opposite of this, continuous addition is MULTIPLICATION.
