Is 96 a Prime number or can it be broken down to the simplest form?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It is divisible by three

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you divide it by three, and then I will help you with the next step.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It divides into 32

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok, good, now what else is it divisible by?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

32 can divide by 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep, so what would that be?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

32/2=16

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok, now, 16 is 4*4, which is equal to 2*2*2*2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so, now do you know how to put it all together?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@AmpLexington

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2*2*2*2*4*4= is that right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm still here @snackshack79

OpenStudy (anonymous):

not quite, there was a three at the beginning, then two twos, and then the fours were broken down into four more twos

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so, your answer would be 3*2*2*2*2*2*2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

does that help?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes that does help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok, cool

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm sorry for asking, but could I have a medal?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thnx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you have any other questions before I leave?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can 26*4 be simplest form?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

firs, it's easy to simplify 4 to 2*2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then, divide 26 by 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

srry, not three, 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

your answer would be 13

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@AmpLexington ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

my computer is lagging weird, so gtg, but the answer would be 2*2*2*13
