Factorization is when you break a number into smaller numbers, that when
multiplied together give the original number for example
60=2x2x3x5

=2x3x5
Factorizations
4(x+3)
= 4x+12
HCF and LCM
What is HCF?, HCF is when you find the highest common factor in 2 numbers
Step 1: Find the prime factors of the given numbers. In this case, the prime
factors of 24 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3, the prime factors of 36 = 2 × 2 × 3 × 3.Step 2:
Multiply the prime factors that are common to both the numbers. Step 3:
Therefore, the HCF of 24 and 36 is 12.
What is LCM?, LCM is when you find the lowest common multiple in 2 numbers
