Answer:
Correct
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Factors
Are whole numbers that can divide the number completely.
2. Prime number
Number of factors that can be express in form of prime factorisation.
Prime factorisation of a number can be done by repeated division by prime numbers (number is written as the product of its prime factors)
For example, 17
List of factors, 1 and 17
Prime number, 17
Prime factorisation, 1×17=17
So why prime numbers cannot be express in form of prime factorisation?
Because, a prime number can only be divided by 1 or itself, so it cannot be factored any further. Not like the other number.
Brainliest would be appreciated :)
