This math topic centers around understanding and applying the concept of prime factorization using factor trees. It specifically challenges students to examine products derived from pairs within a factor tree setup, each with four factors, and deduce or clarify the mathematical relationships within. Each question presents a product scenario where students must identify the correct factors that multiply to produce a number above them on the factor tree. This practice aims to enhance students' grasp of multiplication, factors, and the fundamental aspects of prime factorization.
