We have a new student in class! His name is Jeffrey and his first day is today. We just finished learning about prime numbers, composite numbers, and prime factorization. He has no idea what these words mean! In your own words, describe these things to him. Then, talk him through the steps of solving a problem using prime factorization. Use real world examples if you can. Your response should include a minimum of 4-6 sentences.

Answer:

Hi Jeffery, Prime number are number which has only 2 factors; 1 and the number itself Ex: 7 has only 1 and 7 as its factors.Composite numbers are number which have more than 2 factors Ex: 6 has 1,2,3 and 6 as its factors.Prime Factorization is the method in which you find the factors of a number that are all prime.Ex:The prime factors of 15 are 3 and 5 (because 3×5=15, and 3 and 5 are prime numbers)
