6 isn't prime
The prime factorization will always be longest. 2 x 3 x 7 = 42 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 = 60
60/2 = 30/2 = 15/3 = 5/5 = 1 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 = 60

The process of prime factorisation is one of repeated division by primes, while obtaining a quotient without a remainder, until the process yields a quotient of 1 3024 ÷ 2 = 1512 ................................. 2 is a prime factor of 3024 1512 ÷ 2 = 756 ................................... 2 is a prime factor of 3024 756 ÷ 2 = 378 ..................................... 2 is a prime factor of 3024 378 ÷ 2 = 189 ..................................... 2 is a prime factor of 3024 189 is not divisible by 2 189 ÷ 3 = 63 ....................................... 3 is a prime factor of 3024 63 ÷ 3 = 21 ......................................... 3 is a prime factor of 3024 21 ÷ 3 = 7 ........................................... 3 is a prime factor of 3024 7 is not divisible by 3 7 ÷ 7 = 1 ............................................. 7 is a prime factor of 3024 So the prime factors of 3024 are 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3 and 7
Prime factors of 36 are 22x32 Prime factors of 60 are 22x3x5 The greatest common factor of 36 and 60 is 4 (22).

36
To find the greatest common factor (GCF) of 36, 60, and 84, you can break down each number into its prime factorization and then identify the common prime factors. Prime factorization of 36: 36 = 2 2 × 3 2 36=2 2 ×3 2 Prime factorization of 60: 60 = 2 2 × 3 × 5 60=2 2 ×3×5 Prime factorization of 84: 84 = 2 2 × 3 × 7 84=2 2 ×3×7 Now, identify the common prime factors and multiply them: � � � ( 36 , 60 , 84 ) = 2 2 × 3 = 12 GCF(36,60,84)=2 2 ×3=12 So, the greatest common factor of 36, 60, and 84 is 12.
The GCF of 8, 42, and 60 is 2. The factors of 8 are 1, 2, 4, and 8. The factors of 42 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, and 42. The factors of 60 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30, and 60. The greatest common factor is 2. Or, you can look at the prime factors. The prime factors of 8 are 2, 2, and 2. The prime factors of 42 are 2, 3, and 7. The prime factors of 60 are 2, 3, and 5. The only prime factor they all have in common is 2, so the greatest common factor is 2. Using factor trees: 8 4,2 2,2,2 42 21,2 7,3,2 60 30,2 15,2,2 5,3,2,2 The GCF is 2.
2 x 2 x 3 = 12 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 = 60
The prime factorization of 60 in exponential form:60 = 2 x 2 x 3 x 5.The answer: 22 x 5 x 3.
The prime factorization will always be longest. 2 x 3 x 7 = 42 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 = 60
60/2 = 30/2 = 15/3 = 5/5 = 1 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 = 60
60 30,2 15,2,2 5,3,2,2 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 = 60
