What is the prime factorization
of a prime number​

Answer 1

A prime number is a natural number greater than 1 which is not a product of two smaller natural numbers. A natural number greater than 1 that is not prime is called a composite number. For example, 5 is prime because the only ways of writing it as a product, 1 × 5 or 5 × 1, involve 5 itself.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

suppose the no. is 24

the factors of 24 are:1,2,3,4,6,8,12 and 24.

from these factors 2 and 3 are prime no. . the rest are composite no.

so 2 and 3 are called prime factors of 24.

so the no. 24 can be written as a product of its prime factors 2 and 3.
