Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The method of prime factorization is used to “break down” or express a given number as a product of prime numbers. More so, if a prime number occurs more than once in the factorization, it is usually expressed in exponential form to make it look more compact.
Step 1: Start by dividing the number by the first prime number 2 and continue dividing by 2 until you get a decimal or remainder. Then divide by 3, 5, 7, etc. until the only numbers left are prime numbers. Step 2: Write the number as a product of prime numbers.
