This math topic focuses on prime factorization using factor trees, specifically aiming at finding missing factors when given partial factorizations. Each problem on the worksheet requires students to deduce one or more missing factors from a diagram that represents the multiplicative relationships between numbers. The factor trees presented include four factors, enhancing students' skills in breaking down composite numbers into their prime components and understanding the fundamental structure of numbers through visualization and multiplication. This topic enhances critical thinking and problem-solving skills related to basic arithmetic operations, specifically multiplication, within the context of prime numbers and factorization.
