Prime Factorization - Factor to 3 Factors (Level 1)

This math topic focuses on practicing the skill of prime factorization, specifically breaking down numbers into three factors. It is designed to help learners understand and apply the concepts of factoring, multiplication, division, and fractions. Each question presents a number and asks the student to identify its correct prime factorization from multiple-choice answers, ensuring learners can distinguish between different sets of prime factors. This exercise helps to develop and reinforce foundational arithmetic understanding, essential for deeper mathematical skills and problem-solving abilities.
