How do you express 3080 as a product of prime factors?

Answer 1

#3080# as a product of prime numbers can be written as #2xx2xx2xx5xx7xx11#

Finding all the prime numbers that, when multiplied together, equal the number is the first step in writing any number as the product of its prime factors. It should be noted that prime numbers may be repeated in this type of factorization; what matters is that

(1) Every number is prime.

(2) and a number is assigned to their product

Hence, we should divide the given number consistently by prime numbers starting with #2#, which is first prime number and continue till all factors are prime numbers.

Before we try this for given number #3080#, let us list first few prime numbers, which are #{2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19,23,29,...}#

Now #3080#

= #2xx1540# (and as #1540# can be divided by #2# again)

= #2xx2xx770#

= #2xx2xx2xx385#

= #2xx2xx2xx5xx77#

= #2xx2xx2xx5xx7xx11#

As now we have all prime factors, the process is complete and prime factors of #3080# are #2xx2xx2xx5xx7xx11#.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
