Section 4.1 “Factors and Prime Factorization” Natural numbers are classified according to how many factors they have: (1) Prime numbers: -a whole number that is greater than 1 and has exactly TWO factors, itself and 1. (2) Composite numbers: -a whole number that is greater than 1 and has -a whole number that is greater than 1 and has more than two factors. more than two factors. (3) The number 1: 1 is neither prime nor composite. 1 is neither prime nor composite.

“Prime or Composite?” Prime C Composite 3 1Neither

Factoring Natural Numbers A natural number is FACTORED when it is written as the product of two or more numbers. –Y–Y–Y–You can use divisibility tests to find factors of numbers. –E–E–E–Example: 39 ÷ 3 = 13 3 · 13 = 39 dividend divisor quotient factor product

Monomial a number, x 3x³yz² or the product of a number and one or more variables with whole number exponents or the product of a number and one or more variables with whole number exponents a variable, a variable, 7 To FACTOR a monomial, write the monomial as a product of prime numbers and variables with exponents of 1. To FACTOR a monomial, write the monomial as a product of prime numbers and variables with exponents of 1. 3a³ = 3 · a · a · a
