Number Sets Decimal Representations of Rational Numbers
Numbers are grouped into sets. These sets are used
to identify types of numbers. Every rational number has a decimal
representation.

Prime Factorization
Integers can be classified according to the number of factors they
have:
Composite numbers ‐ an integer that is divisible without remainder
by at least one positive integer other than itself and one.
Factors Prime numbe r ‐
an integer that has no other factors but itself and 1.
The factors of a number a are smaller numbers that divide a evenly. ****Note: 1 is neither prime nor
composite.
Transform that
number into a product
of primes!
IMPORTANT: All integers can be factored into a
Numbers can be written as a product of factors product of prime numbers!
Ex: Write the number 1620 as a
Ex: Write the number 18 as a product of two factors. product

Problems with factors and prime numbers
How many ways can you write 168 as the product of two
factors?
Problems:
Ms. Kongtakane doesn't have a calculator. She wants to know if the
number 2601928312 is divisible by 4. Ms. Charest tells her "It definetely
is... if the number is greater than 100, then you can tell if it is divisble by 4
just by looking at the last two digits. If they're divisible by 4, then the
number is divisible by 4!" Is this right? Explain why it could be right or
