Math Problem Statement

Find the numbers represented by the following prime factorizations: 49. 2^2 * 3^2 * 5, 50. 3^2 * 5^2 * 7, 51. 2^3 * 11^2 * 13

Solution

Let's work on solving the prime factorizations at the bottom of the page:

49. 223252^2 \cdot 3^2 \cdot 5

  • 22=42^2 = 4
  • 32=93^2 = 9
  • 49=364 \cdot 9 = 36
  • 365=18036 \cdot 5 = 180

The number represented is 180.

50. 325273^2 \cdot 5^2 \cdot 7

  • 32=93^2 = 9
  • 52=255^2 = 25
  • 925=2259 \cdot 25 = 225
  • 2257=1575225 \cdot 7 = 1575

The number represented is 1575.

51. 23112132^3 \cdot 11^2 \cdot 13

  • 23=82^3 = 8
  • 112=12111^2 = 121
  • 8121=9688 \cdot 121 = 968
  • 96813=12584968 \cdot 13 = 12584

The number represented is 12584.

  2. How do you find the prime factorization of a number?
  3. What is the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 180 and 1575?
  4. Can two different numbers have the same prime factorization?
  5. How can prime factorization help in simplifying fractions?

Tip: Prime factorizations are useful for finding the greatest common divisor (GCD) and least common multiple (LCM) between numbers.
