Overarching instructions: Please only type down your name and date for your proper heading.

I. PRIME FACTORIZATION. Lay out the prime factors for the following numbers. Follow this
example for the solution. Type the given and show the prime factors.
Ex. 60 = 2x2x3x5

1. 50 = 5x5x2 = 52x2
2. 100 = 5x5x2x2= 52x 22
3. 145 = 29x5
4. 250 = 5x5x5x2 = 53x2
5. 320 =2x2x2x2x2x2x5= 26x5
II. ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION OF DISSIMILAR FRACTIONS. 2 pts each. 1 for solution and
1 for answer. Your final answer MUST BE in the fraction’s reduced terms and in its
mixed form, IF APPLICABLE. Do not worry if a resulting fraction is negative. Solutions
should be in this form:
5 8 1 x+ y + z 110+96 +11 217 85
Ex. + − = = = =1

III. MULTIPLYING AND DIVIDING FRACTIONS. 2 pts each. Show solutions. Please make them
clear and neat. I’ll give you freedom to use either the “cross-referring” technique or the
“reduce individual fraction” technique whenever applicable in solving for these. Reduce
your final answers to lowest terms.
