The prime factorization of 32 is 2x2x2x2x2 or 25. The prime factorization of 40 is 2x2x2x5 or 23x5. For a number to be a multiple of a given number the multiple must have the entire prime factorization of that number in is. So a multiple of 32 must contain 2x2x2x2x2 or 25 . Likewise a multiple of 40 must contain 2x2x2x5 or 23x5. The least number that this could possible happen with must have 5 factors of 2 and one factor of 5 (the highest exponent on each individual prime factor). Thus the LCM is 2x2x2x2x2x5 or 25x5 Which is 160.
The prime factorization of 40 is 2x2x2x5 or 23x5.
Yes, the prime factorization of 40 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 5
both
40*40*40*40
2^3 x 5 = 40
40 is simply a number. It does not and cannot explain prime factorisation!
