Well, isn't that just a happy little question! To find the prime factorization of 72 using continuous division, you start by dividing 72 by the smallest Prime number, which is 2. Then, you keep dividing the quotients by prime numbers until you can't divide anymore. So, for 72, you would find that the prime factorization is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3. Keep on painting those prime numbers, my friend!
It is: 2*2*7 = 28
It is: 2*5*5*5 = 250
As a product of its prime factors: 2*2*2*17*179 = 24344
78 / 2 = 39 39 / 3 = 13 So the prime fact. is 2 x 3 x 13
84 2 42 3 21 7 84=2^2*3*7
56
ewan
whats continuous divisions of 56
2, 5 and 7
It is: 2*2*7 = 28
It is: 2, 2, 2, 3 and 3
2*2*19 = 76
greatest common factor by using intersection of sets method,prime factorization method and continous division method of 72,96 and 200
The concept of "prime factorization" is used for integers. It doesn't make sense to use it for fractions or decimals.
It is: 2*5*5*5 = 250
2*2*2*2*3 = 48
It is: 2*2*2*3*197 = 4728
