What are the factors and prime factors of 12 show the work?
Oh honey, let's break it down for you. The factors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12 because they can all divide evenly into 12. Now, the prime factors of 12 are 2 and 3, because those are the prime numbers that multiply together to give you 12. So, there you have it, sweetie!
How many factors has 17?
all numbers can be broken down into its prime factors so if you want a number with 17 factors all you have to do is multiply the first 17 prime factors together 2*3*5*7*11*13*17*19*23*29*31*37*41*43*47*53*59=1922760350154212639070
What is a factor of 44?
To find the factors of a number you first need to break it down into its prime factors. In this case, 44 is even so you can divide by 2. Do this and you get 22, which is also even. Divide by 2 again and you get 11 which is prime. Thus the prime factors of 44 are 2, 2 and 11. In order to find all the factors (other than 1) you multiply any combination of these prime factors together. In this case, the factors of 44 work out as: 1, 2, 4, 11, 22 and 44.
How does finding the prime factorization of a group of numbers help you to find their greatest common factor?
If you take all the common prime factors between numbers and multiply them it will give you the gcf.
When all the prime factors are odd the number is odd?
odd and prime are two different things ,but odd numbers can be prime or composite just depends if you can multiply it with another number except 1 here's an example 7 ( 7 is odd and is prime because it has 2 factors "7 & 1" 15 is odd ,but not prime because 5x3 is 15 and 15x1 is 15 5 and 3 are factors of 15 so all odd numbers are not prime all even numbers are composite except the number 2.
