This document discusses prime factorization, which is the process of finding the prime number factors that multiply together to make a composite number. It provides examples of factorizing numbers like 24, 12, 16, 18, 28, 24, and 30. The document emphasizes that prime factorization is an important skill and allows students to practice this process on their own.

 You know that composite numbers have at least two
factors or more. Today, we will examine the prime
number factors of those composite numbers.

3. Prime Factorization
 The prime number factors that multiply to get a
composite number.
 Example: 24 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 3
 Note: all these factors are prime numbers. We do
not mention 4 *6 because these factors are not
prime numbers.
