42=2x21
21=3x7
PF=2x3x7
The PF (Prime Factorization) of 42 is 2x3x7.(Sorry, I couldn't do a factor tree, there are always helpful to use when doing prime factorization, but since this is the computer, I could only do it like the following above.)
21 and 6 are two composite numbers that have 42 as a common multiple. One of the prime factors of 42, which is 3, is a prime factor of 21 and 6 as well. The prime factorization of 42 (2 x 3 x 7) includes the prime factorization of 21 (3 x 7) and 6 (2 x 3).
37 is a prime number but 42 is a composite number
Composite. 42 = 2 * 3 * 7
42 is a Composite Number.
42 is a composite number. A prime number has only 2 factors which are 1 and itself. Composite numbers are everything else except 1 and 0. 1 and 0 are neither prime, nor composite.
42 is a composite number; it has factors other than 1 and itself. It is not a prime number.The prime factors of 42 are 1, 2, 3, 7, 42
42 is composite
21 and 6 are two composite numbers that have 42 as a common multiple. One of the prime factors of 42, which is 3, is a prime factor of 21 and 6 as well. The prime factorization of 42 (2 x 3 x 7) includes the prime factorization of 21 (3 x 7) and 6 (2 x 3).
No. Prime factorization is the method of expressing a number as the product of prime numbers. So, Prime factorization of 42 = 2x3x7
37 is a prime number but 42 is a composite number
Composite. 42 = 2 * 3 * 7
42 is a Composite Number.
42 = 2 x 3 x 7
No, 42 is a composite number, not a prime number. 42 is divisible by 2, 3, and 7. 42 has more than two factors and so it is a composite number. All even numbers greater than 2 are composite.
42 is a composite number. A prime number has only 2 factors which are 1 and itself. Composite numbers are everything else except 1 and 0. 1 and 0 are neither prime, nor composite.
In actual fact, the prime factorization of 42 is not 21 x 2, as 21 is not a prime number. The complete prime factorization of 42 is 2 x 3 x 7.
Prime Factorization of 42No, 21 X 2 is not the prime factorization of 42 because 21 is a composite number.2 X 3 X 7 is the prime factorization of 42 because all the factors are prime numbers.To arrive at the prime factorization in this particular case, you had to factor 21 down to its prime factors, not forgetting that one of the prime factors of 42 was already 2.2 X 21 = 423 X 7 = 21, so the prime factorization of 42 is:2 X 3 X 7No, 21 is not prime. Try 2 x 3 x 7.
