Frequently Asked Questions

Prime factorization is the process of expressing a number as a product of its prime factors. Every integer greater than 1 can be uniquely represented as a product of primes (Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic). For example, 360 = 2³ × 3² × 5.
If a number n = p₁^a₁ × p₂^a₂ × ... × pₖ^aₖ, then the number of divisors is (a₁+1)(a₂+1)...(aₖ+1). Every combination of prime powers up to their maximum exponent gives a unique divisor.
A perfect square is a number whose square root is an integer. In prime factorization, a number is a perfect square if and only if all exponents in its prime factorization are even. For example, 36 = 2² × 3² is a perfect square (√36 = 6).
