First off, since 48 is even, you know that it's divisible by 2. Indeed, 48/2 = 24. 24 is also even, and so is also divisible by 2; 24/2 = 12. The same goes for 12; 12/2 = 6, and also for 6; 6/2 = 3, which is a Prime number. Since all of our factors are now either 2 or 3, both of which are prime, we're done. Because we divided by 2, 4 separate times, there are four multiples of 2, as well as one multiple of 3, in the prime factorization of 48, which would usually be written as 24 X 3.
The prime factorization of 48 is 2x2x2x2x3, or 24x3 in exponential form.
24 x 3 = 48
24*3
2^4 x 3 = 48
First, you have to find the number that is a multiple of 7. That number is 126 because 7 x 18 = 126. Then, you need to find the prime factorization. You can do that by starting with any factor pair of 126 and keep factoring the composite factors until all factors are prime. 126: 2 x 61 Since 2 and 61 are prime, that is the prime factorization of 126.
The only number with that prime factorization has to be 48.
The prime factorization of 48 is 2x2x2x2x3, or 24x3 in exponential form.
48 is not prime. 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 is the prime factorization of 48
To find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF) of 24, 40, and 48, we first need to find the prime factorization of each number. The prime factorization of 24 is 2^3 * 3, the prime factorization of 40 is 2^3 * 5, and the prime factorization of 48 is 2^4 * 3. The GCF is the product of the common prime factors raised to the lowest power, which in this case is 2^3 = 8. Therefore, the GCF of 24, 40, and 48 is 8.
48 is even, so it can't be prime. The only even prime number is 2. The prime factorization of 48 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3.
24 x 3 = 48
No - the prime factorization for 48 is 24 x 3.
