5•13

Answer 2

Prime factorization of 65 is
`5 * 13`

Solution:

Need to find the prime factorization of 65.

Prime factorization is finding all the prime factors of 65.

Method is to take prime number one by one . check whether the given number is divisible by the prime number till you get all the prime factors of given number.

In our case number is 65 . since given number 65 is not divisible by first two prime number that are 2 and 3 , divide 65 by third prime number = 5

`(65)/(5) = 13`

That means 65 =
`5 * 13`

Now if you see, both factors that are 5 and 13 are prime numbers.

So prime factorization of 65 is
`5 * 13`
