Factoring

1. Factors and Factorization

   • Factors are any numbers that when multiplied by another number equal a certain number
   • An example:
     • 3 x 4 =12
       • 3 and 4 are factors of 12

2. Greatest Common Factor

   • The greatest common factor is the greatest factor 2 numbers have in common
   • An example:
     • 36 and 6 36: 1, 3, 13, 39 / 6: 1, 2, 3, 6

3. Divisibility of Factors

   • Divisability of factors is if a number is divisible (evenly) by another number
   • An example:
     • 50/5=10
       • 50 is divisable by 5
