If you know the prime factorization of a number, you can find out the total number of factors.
Example: 210
21 x 31 x 51 x 71 = 210
Add one to the exponents and multiply them.
2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 16, the total number of factors.
You know that 1, 2, 3, 5, and 7 are factors. You need three more to get halfway.
2 x 3 = 6
2 x 5 = 10
2 x 7 = 14
Divide all those numbers into 210.
1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 10, 14, 15, 21, 30, 35, 42, 70, 105, 210
120 60,2 30,2,2 15,2,2,2 5,3,2,2,2
If your numbers have no prime factors in common, they are relatively prime.
22 x 52 x 13
128 64,2 32,2,2 16,2,2,2 8,2,2,2,2 4,2,2,2,2,2 2,2,2,2,2,2,2
A prime number has no factors other than 1 and the number itself. If prime factorization of a number reveals one or more additional prime factors, the number is a composite.
you use prime factorization
44 / 222 / 21144 = 22111 ■
Either one will work. If you're listing factors, use factors. If you're using prime factorization, use prime factors.
120 60,2 30,2,2 15,2,2,2 5,3,2,2,2
you multiply them together
i dont know thats why im asking you
The idea is to divide numerator and denominator of a fraction by any common factors. Prime factorization is simply used to find all possible factors.
If your numbers have no prime factors in common, they are relatively prime.
22 x 52 x 13
128 64,2 32,2,2 16,2,2,2 8,2,2,2,2 4,2,2,2,2,2 2,2,2,2,2,2,2
A prime number has no factors other than 1 and the number itself. If prime factorization of a number reveals one or more additional prime factors, the number is a composite.
The prime factorization of 560 is: 2, 5, and 7
