Question -

In which of the following expressions, prime factorization has been done?

(a) 24 = 2 × 3 × 4 (b) 56 = 7 × 2 × 2 × 2

(c) 70 = 2 × 5 × 7 (d) 54 = 2 × 3 × 9



Answer -

(a) 24 = 2 × 3 × 4

Since 4 is composite, prime factorisation has not been done.

(b) 56 = 7 × 2 × 2 × 2

Since all the factors are prime, prime factorisation has been done.

(c) 70 = 2 × 5 × 7

Since all the factors are prime, prime factorisation has been done.

(d) 54 = 2 × 3 × 9

Since 9 is composite, prime factorisation has not been done.
