Given the number:

60

Determine the prime factorization of the number.

Solution:

Prime numbers are basically numbers that only have 2 factors, namely the number itself and 1. In our case since we are asked to find the prime factorization of 60, hence we can write it as,

= 2 x 2 x 3 x 5

Check:

= 2 x 2 x 3 x 5

= 12 x 5

= 60

Final answer:

= 2 x 2 x 3 x 5
