The prime factors are: 2 x 3 = 6
Yes, 12 has prime factors. The prime factors of 12 are 2, 2, and 3, so the distinct prime factors are 2 and 3. Almost all integers have prime factors. The integers without prime factors are -1, 0, and 1.
The factors of -12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12 and their negatives. The prime factors are 2 and 3.
The LCM of 12 and 17 is their product, 204. Since they are relatively prime, that is to say they have no factors in common, the least common multiple is 12x17. We know there are no factors in common because 17 is a prime.
12 has two prime factors: 2 and 3.
The prime factors are: 2 x 3 = 6
As a product of its prime factors: 2*2*3 = 12
12 = 22 x 3
First, write both numbers as the product of their prime factors: 9 = 3x3 12 = 2x2x3 The next step is to identify any common prime factors. In this case, both numbers have 3 as a prime factor. Therefore, the HCF of 9 and 12 is 3.
12 = 2 x 2 x 3
To find the HCF of 8 and 12, first write them as the product of their prime factors: 8 = 2x2x2 12 = 2x2x3 The next step is to identify any common prime factors. In this example, both numbers have two 2s as prime factors. Multiply these together and you get 4. Thus the HCF of 8 and 12 is 4.
2 x 2 x 3 = 12
12
The largest factor that 12 and 30 have in common is the product of the two prime factors they have in common.
12
2 x 2 x 3 = 12
Prime factorization is the expression of a given number as the product of its prime factors. 2 x 2 x 3 = 12
