The prime factorization of 100 is 4x25. Show a factor tree!

Sagot :

Answer:

See details below:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start with the biggest factors and work our way down to see how arrive at 4 * 25.

In this case, the first part of the tree would be 50 * 2.

2 is prime, but 50 is not and thus must be factored.

Two possible factors of 50 are 2 and 25.

The 25 is not a prime number and must be factored further.

Two possible factors of 25 are 5 and 5.

Thus, the prime factorization of 100 is 2*2*5*5.

Then to simplify, we can combine the similar factors:  (2*2) * (5*5) = 4*25

I hope this makes sense
