Answer:
The prime factorization of a number, then, is all of the prime numbers that multiply to create the original number. It would be pretty difficult to perform prime factorization if we didn't first refresh our memory on prime numbers.

In number theory, integer factorization is the decomposition of a composite number into a product of smaller integers. If these factors are further restricted to prime numbers, the process is called prime factorization.
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.
