Factorization of:

2800

75

168

i'm still new to this process and don't understand. so show your work using multiplication!

Step-by-step explanation:

2800: 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 5 * 5 * 7

75: 3 * 5 * 5

168: 2 * 2* 2 * 3 * 7

It's not really multiplication. It's more division.

Try 2800 as a sample. What you are trying to do is break this down into primes. The first prime is 2

2800/2 = 1400

1400 / 2 = 700

700 / 2 = 350

350 / 2 = 175. That's the end of what the 2s can do.

175 / 5 = 35

35/ 5 = 7 7 is a prime. You are done. Now run up the ladder.

2800: 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 5 * 5 * 7

75 is not an even number. It has no 2s. Go to 3

75 / 3 = 25.

25 / 5 = 5

That's the end

75: 3 * 5 * 5

Your calculator can be of great help. The rule is keep factoring until you get a decimal remainder. Move on to the next prime. Stop when the last division gives you a prime.
