You find the prime factorization of 42 like this.

You think what 2 number multiplied together give you 42:

6x7 7 is prime because the only factors it has is 1 and itself. 6 can be broken into 3x2.

So you currently have 7x3x2. All these numbers are prime so you just found the prime factorization!
