Prime Factorizatio

This math topic involves advanced exercises in factorization, specifically focusing on prime factorization and determining the greatest common factor. The exercises require students to determine whether a given number is a factor of two other numbers, using prime factorizations provided in algebraic form. Variables are incorporated to represent specific numeric values, combining learning about variables as factors with hands-on prime factorization practice. Each problem presents a situation where students decide if one number (represented by a variable) is a common factor of two different products, enhancing their skills in algebraic manipulation and understanding of factors.
