Prime Numbers

Instructions: Determine if the number given is a Prime Number. You can do this by testing for divisibility. (For the exercises on this page, you only need to try divisibility tests for 2,3,and 5.) Mark the correct box.

Factoring to Primes

Instructions: Factor each number down to its Prime Factorization. Use the `factor tree' templates

to help you.

NOTE: Factor tree steps may vary, but the final `prime

factorization' should match this answer key.

Prime Factorization and Exponent Notation

PF 6

Review: Exponents are used to show repeated multiplication. For example, if you want to multiply the number 2 together 3 times, you could write 2 ? 2 ? 2, but you could also use Exponent Notation and just write 23. The small `3' means multiply this number by itself 3 times. Here are a few examples so you can see the pattern.

32 = 3 ? 3

44 = 4 ? 4 ? 4 ? 4

53 = 5 ? 5 ? 5

25 = 2 ? 2 ? 2 ? 2 ? 2

Instructions: Rewrite the Prime Factorization shown using Exponent Notation.

1 2 ? 2 ? 2 ? 5 = 23 x 5 2 2 ? 2 ? 3 ? 3 = 22 x 32 3 2 ? 2 ? 2 ? 2 = 24 4 2 ? 2 ? 5 ? 5 = 22 x 52 5 2 ? 2 ? 3 ? 3 ? 7 = 22 x 32 x 7 6 2 ? 2 ? 2 ? 2 ? 7 = 24 x 7 7 2 ? 2 ? 2 ? 5 ? 5 = 23 x 52 8 2 ? 2 ? 3 ? 5 ? 7 = 22 x 3 x 5 x 7 9 2 ? 2 ? 2 ? 3 ? 3 ? 3 ? 3 = 23 x 34 10 2 ? 2 ? 2 ? 3 ? 3 ? 7 ? 7 = 23 x 32 x 72 11 2 ? 3 ? 3 ? 3 ? 5 ? 7 ? 7 = 2 x 33 x 5 x 72 12 2 ? 2 ? 2 ? 2 ? 2 ? 2 ? 3 = 26 x 3
