Algebra.Com's Answer #76984 by elima(1433)![]() ![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Factor tree is listing all the factors of a number until you get to the prime numbers; \n" ); document.write( "90 \n" ); document.write( "5 x 18 \n" ); document.write( "5 is a prime number, so it can not go any further, 18 has factors; \n" ); document.write( "9 * 2 \n" ); document.write( "2 is prime so you stop there, but 9 has factors; \n" ); document.write( "3 * 3 \n" ); document.write( "so the prime factorization is; \n" ); document.write( "5 * 3 * 3 * 2 \n" ); document.write( "Hope you can understand this explanation, it is hard to explain without being able to actually show you. \n" ); document.write( ":) \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
