Many properties of a natural number n can be seen or directly computed from the prime factorization of n.. The multiplicity of a prime factor p of n is the largest exponent m for which p m divides n.
Then r 2 /2 = 18. The three factor-pairs of 18 are (1, 18), (2, 9), and (3, 6). All three factor pairs will produce triples using the above equations. s = 1, t = 18 produces the triple [7, 24, 25] because x = 6 + 1 = 7, y = 6 + 18 = 24, z = 6 + 1 + 18 = 25. s = 2, t = 9 produces the triple [8, 15, 17] because x = 6 + 2 = 8, y = 6 + 9 = 15, z ...
The next odd divisor to be tested is 7. One has 77 = 7 · 11, and thus n = 2 · 3 2 · 7 · 11. This shows that 7 is prime (easy to test directly). Continue with 11, and 7 as a first divisor candidate. As 7 2 > 11, one has finished. Thus 11 is prime, and the prime factorization is; 1386 = 2 · 3 2 · 7 · 11.
Avoirdupois is a system of mass based on a pound of 16 ounces, while Troy weight is the system of mass where 12 troy ounces equals one troy pound. The symbol g 0 is used to denote standard gravity in order to avoid confusion with the (upright) g symbol for gram.
In algebra, the factor theorem connects polynomial factors with polynomial roots. Specifically, if f ( x ) {\displaystyle f(x)} is a polynomial, then x − a {\displaystyle x-a} is a factor of f ( x ) {\displaystyle f(x)} if and only if f ( a ) = 0 {\displaystyle f(a)=0} (that is, a {\displaystyle a} is a root of the polynomial).
For example, 15 is a composite number because 15 = 3 · 5, but 7 is a prime number because it cannot be decomposed in this way. If one of the factors is composite, it can in turn be written as a product of smaller factors, for example 60 = 3 · 20 = 3 · (5 · 4) .

Integer factorization is the process of determining which prime numbers divide a given positive integer.Doing this quickly has applications in cryptography.The difficulty depends on both the size and form of the number and its prime factors; it is currently very difficult to factorize large semiprimes (and, indeed, most numbers that have no small factors).
