The 4 distinct prime factors (listing each prime factor only once) of 840 are 2, 3, 5, and 7.
The prime factorization of 840 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 7 or, in index form (in other words, using exponents), 23 x 3 x 5 x 7.
NOTE: There cannot be common factors, a greatest common factor, or a least common multiple because "common" refers to factors or multiples that two or more numbers have in common.
Oh, what a happy little question! Let's break down the number 840 into its prime factors. We start by dividing 840 by the smallest prime number, which is 2. Repeat this process until you cannot divide anymore, and you'll find that 840 can be expressed as 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 7. Just like that, you've decomposed 840 into its prime factors, creating a beautiful mathematical masterpiece!
