Factorization
Cards in this deck (5)
- 1FactorizationFactorization is when you narrow down a
number's factors to their simplest form. Their simplest form is when they cannot be
divided by anything but themselves and 1. - 2FactorizationWhen you list all the positive factors of
a number, you just list all the original
number's multiples. - 3Factorization Practice: What are the factors of 12?1,2,3,4,6, and 12.
- 4FactorizatoionWhen you find the prime-power factorization, you multiply all
the simplest form numbers together to get your original
answer. - 5Factorization Practice: Find the prime power factors of 2828 is divisible by 7 and 4. 7 can't be narrowed down
anymore, so it will be one of the prime-power factors. 4 is
divisible by 2 and 2, but 2 can't be narrowed down anymore, so
they are the other prime factors we will use. The way to write
the answer is 2^2x7
