What are prime factorization and factor trees?

Factor trees may have been used when you were in elementary school--when you take a number and see what numbers "go into" it by making branches. Prime factorization is simply just a more sophisticated (and kind of easier) way of seeing what PRIME numbers go into a number. To do that, you must divide only use prime divisors. You keep dividing until the last number is 1. Then, using the divisors you've used, you create a multiplication problem, usually with exponents. For example, you have to do the prime factorization of 20. You choose to divide by the prime number 2, which is 10. You divide 10 by 2 which equals 5, and then you divide by 5 equaling one. Therefore, the prime factorization of 20 is 2 squared times 5.

What are the similarities between rational numbers and fractions?

All integers belong to the set {..., -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, ...}. The absolute value of any integer results in a whole number {0, 1, 2, ...}. Adding and subtracting integers always results in an integer. Multiplying integers always results in an integer. Dividing integers can sometimes not result in an integer.
