Why 1 is not prime number?
It's a question of how "prime" is defined. Mathematicians have chosen not to include 1 in their set of prime numbers, possibly because they feel it makes things easier.Every positive integer can be written as a product of prime numbers (prime factorization). In fact, every positive integer has only one prime factorization. (Reordering the primes doesn't count, e.g. 2x3x3 is the same as 3x2x3.) This would no longer be true if 1 was a prime number. For instance: 14 = 2x7 = 1x2x7 = 1x1x2x7 = 1x1x1x2x7. Every positive integer would have infinitely many prime factorizations. You's have to rewrite the theorem to say "...only one prime factorization WITHOUT A 1", which would be more awkward.There are probably more examples out there, but I can't think of any good ones at the moment.
How do you find the factors and prime factors of a number?
A prime number is a whole number greater than 1 that is divisible by only itself and 1. So, for example, 5 is a prime number because it is only divisible by 1 and 5, but 6 is not a prime number, because it is divisible by 1, 2, 3 and 6.One number is a factor of another if it can evenly divide into it. So, for example, 6 is a factor of 18, since 18/6 is 3.The prime factors of a number are all of the factors of that number that are prime numbers. So, to find the prime factors of 28, first list all of the numbers that are factors of 28. The factors of 28 are 1, 2, 4, 7, 14, and 28. Then write those factors that are prime: 2 and 7.The prime factorization of a number is a little different. The prime factorization of a number is a unique set of prime numbers that multiply together to get the given number. So, the prime factorization of 28 is 2x2x7, because 2x2x7=28.To find the prime factorization of a number, start by writing the number as a product of any pair of non-trivial factors. (So, any factors other than 1 and the number.) Then look at each of these numbers. If the number is prime, then it will be in the prime factorization of the given number. If it is not prime, write it as the product of any of its non-trivial factors. Continue until all numbers are prime.For example, let's find the prime factorization of 28. We can write 28 as the product of the factors 4 and 7. Seven is a prime number, so it will be in the prime factorization of 28. Four, however is not a prime number, so we will write it as 2x2. Since 2 is a prime number, we don't have to "break down" these 2's any more. So the prime factorization of 28 is 2x2x7, or 7x2x2, or 2x7x2--the order of the prime numbers doesn't matter, but we usually write them from smallest to largest.Can you find the prime factorization of 24? The answer is 2x2x2x3.You only need to check the for factors less than (or equal to) the square root of the number. Also, you only need to check for prime factors - once you've got those, you can get the rest easily (if you want to).Example: 1524Try 2:1524 / 2 = 762Try 2 again:762 / 2 = 381Try 2 again:It's not a factor. Move on to the next prime.Try 3:381 / 3 = 127Try 3 again:Not a factor.Try 5:Not a factor.Try 7:Not a factor.Try 11:Not a factor.The next prime is 13. But we don't need to try 13, because 13 > sqrt(127). This means that if 13 had been a factor (say 13x=127), then x would have been a smaller factor of 127, and we would have removed it by now. Similarly, you don't need to try 17, or 19, or any more prime numbers. 127 is prime.Conclusion: The prime factorisation of 1524 is 1524 = 2 * 2 * 3 * 127.
What is the prime factorization of 190?
A famous theorem says that each number has a unique prime factorization.You can begin by expanding the number to known products, say 10 * 19 (or 5*38 or ...)You just keep going until only prime numbers remain. Here, 19 is prime but 10 is composite so we reduce it further to 2*5. Both of these are prime numbers, so we are done.The resulting pf is 190=2*5*19 (only powers of prime numbers on the right)It is: 2*5*19 = 190
Which two prime numbers multiply to make 100?
Oh, dude, that's an easy one. So, like, the two prime numbers that multiply to make 100 are 5 and 20. Wait, did I say 20? I meant 2 and 50. Math, right? It's like a puzzle, but with numbers.
What are the factors of prime numbers 1 100?
A number which is divisible by only itself and 1 is called a prime number. It means a prime number has only two factors.Let us say n is a prime number then its factors are 1 and n.So for any prime number we can easily write its factors because it has only two factors: 1 and the number itself.Similarly we can write the factors of prime numbers from 1 to 100.2: 1 and 23: 1 and 35: 1 and 57: 1 and 711: 1 and 11 & so on.From the definition of prime number it is clear that writing down the factors of a prime number is not a difficult task because we don't need to do any calculation.But for the prime numbers from 1 to 100 writing the factors is a tedious task as it involves nothing but writing 1 and the number itself.For the list of prime numbers visit the related questions.
Why do you say the prime factorization instead a prime factorization?
Saying "The" Instead of "A"The prime factorization is used instead of a prime factorization because there is only one correct prime factorization of any given number. Of course, that refers to composite numbers because prime numbers have no prime factorization.The use of the word "a" implies that more than one prime factorization is possible when it's not. The use of the word "the" signifies that only one prime factorization is possible, though there are various ways to arrive at it.
The prime factorization of 120 is not 2x3x4x5 say why?
Because 4 is not a prime number.
Who made prime factorization?
I am sorry to say I don't THINK anyone know who invented/created/made prime factorization sorry :(
What can you say about the prime factorization of the denominator of the rational number 34 5478?
If that's 34/5478, I can say the prime factorization of the denominator is 2 x 3 x 11 x 83
What can you say about the prime factorization of square numbers?
Each prime factor will appear an even number of times.
What is another name for factor tree?
if its a math one i say prime factorization.
What does the Prime Factorization Theorem say?
In number theory, the fundamental theorem of arithmetic, also called the unique factorization theorem or the unique-prime-factorization theorem, states that every integer greater than 1 is either prime itself or is the product of prime numbers, and that, although the order of the primes in the second case is arbitrary, the primes themselves are not.
Does a factor have to be a whole number?
If you are thinking of prime factorization of integers, yes, a prime number more specifically
What number only has 1 number in prime factorization?
Prime numbers only have one prime factor. Prime factorizations have at least two. Sometimes they're the same number (2 x 2 = 4) so we could say it has one distinct prime factor.
How do you prime factorization?
To find the prime factorization of a number, divide the number by each prime number up to the greatest prime that will go into the number leaving no remainder.As an example, this is the process for factorization of 648:648/2=324324/2=162162/2=8181/3=2727/3=99/3=33/3=1Listing each divisor as a prime factor, the prime factorization of 648 is 2x2x3x3x3x3 (or 23x34 in exponential form).Keep dividing the original number by prime numbers until all the factors are prime. A large majority of the numbers you will encounter are multiples of 2, 3, 5 and/or 7. Start there.well first of all you need to know what prime factorization means: prime factorization is the process of decomposing a number into its constituent prime numbers; the calculation of all prime factors in a number. Step 1: write your number down and draw 2 diaganal lines down on each side no w you will need to find to factors that will multiply equally to get the number. say you had 10 the two numbers would be 2 * 5= 10, 2 is prime and 5 is prime so you cirle both of them and your prime factorization would be 10=2x5 and that is how you do prime factorization. EX. BELOW
How many lakh make one crore?
100 lakhs. So you can say, "I have 2 lakhs", or "I have 99 lakhs", but instead of saying, "I have 100 lakhs", you would say, "I have 1 crore".
