Jinsi ya kukokotoa Prime Factors

Prime Factors ni nini?

Prime factorisation (or prime factoring) expresses a composite number as a product of prime numbers. Every positive integer greater than 1 has a unique prime factorisation — this is the Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic. Prime factors are used in GCD/LCM calculations, cryptography, and number theory.
