All composite numbers can be expressed as unique products of prime numbers. This is accomplished by dividing the original number and its factors by prime numbers until all the factors are prime. A factor tree can help you visualize this.
Example: 210
210 Divide by two.
105,2 Divide by three.
35,3,2 Divide by five.
7,5,3,2 Stop. All the factors are prime.
2 x 3 x 5 x 7 = 210
That's the prime factorization of 210.
3, 12, 30
Yes, because the digits of 261 add up to a multiple of 3.
3 is a prime number. Prime numbers don't have factor trees. The factors of 3 are 1 and 3.

If the last two digits of your target number are a multiple of 4, 4 is a factor of the whole number.
200 / \ 20 10 / \ 10x10x10 / \ 5x2x10x10 / \ 5x2x5x2x10 / \ 5x2x5x2x5x2 really, a fifth grader knows this.
102
If that is the case, then three is a factor of the original number.
Yes. If 492 is even, it has 2 as a factor. If its digits add up to a multiple of 3, it has 3 as a factor. If it has 2 and 3 as a factor, it has 6 as a factor.
114 beacause it's three digits a factor of seven even
3, 12, 30
No factor of 9 has three digits. 450 is a three-digit multiple of 150 (and of 9) with a digit sum of 9.
Yes, because the digits of 261 add up to a multiple of 3.
150
If you add all the digits up, and the total equals a number that 3 can go in, then it's a factor of 3.

450 or 900
