Describe and correct the error in writing the prime factorization of 60.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The correct prime factorization of 60 is 2脳2脳3脳5

Step by step solution

01

Step-1 – Given

The given number is 60.

02

Step-2 – To determine

We have to find the correct value for the prime factorization of the number 60.

03

Step-3 – Calculation

We first divide 60 by the smallest prime number 2.

60梅2=30

Then we divide 30 by 2.

30梅2=15

15 can not be divided by 2. So, we try by 3.

15梅3=5.

5 is a prime number. So we divide 5 by 5.

5梅5=1

So the Prime Factorization of 60 is: 2脳2脳3脳5
