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.

Does any 3 digit number repeated to make a 6 digit number have to have at least 4 prime factors ex 359359 If yes then is there any pattern on how to figure that out?
abcabc=abc x 1001 1001 = 7 x 11 x 13 So such number as at least 4 prime factors: if abc is prime, then 4 factors only if abc is not prime then at least 4 factors
