List all the factors of 45. Show work
Prime numbers are 2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19...etc
find the smallest prime that divides 45 evenly:
it is not 2; it is 3
Dividing by 3 you get 15
Find the smallest prime that divides 15 evenly:
it is not 2; it is 3
Dividing 15 by 3 you get 5 which is a prime.
So, 45 = 3*3*5

Problem#2

29,31,37,etc.
Find numbers that can only be divided by 1 and themselves.
