Negative numbers don't have prime factorizations.
Given the prime factorization of an integer how can you determine if our integer is a perfect square?
You can't. You can only find the prime factorization of an integer.
No, 16 is not prime. 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 is the prime factorization of 16.
Find the prime factorization of 16.The prime factorization of 16 is: 2x2x2x2.
The positive integer factors of 293 are: 1, 293
Expressing a positive composite integer as the product of its prime factors.
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
The square root of 512 is neither an integer, nor even a rational number, so it has no prime factorization.

== Will you please answer my question?! Will you please answer my question?! == In number theory ( http://www.answers.com/topic/number-theory ), integer factorization is the process of breaking down a composite number ( http://www.answers.com/topic/composite-number ) into smaller non-trivial integers ( http://www.answers.com/topic/divisor-2 ), which when multiplied together equal the original integer. Source:integer-factorization== The prime factors of a positive integer are the prime numbers that divide into that integer exactly, without leaving a remainder.The process of finding these numbers is called integer factorization, or prime factorization.

I would assume -1, which is not prime and must be part of the factorization to make the negative number negative.
