Study Notes
Multiplicative Decomposition
- Multiplicative decomposition breaks down a number into its factors through multiplication.
- For example, 30 can be decomposed into 3 x 5 x 2.
- Prime numbers have a unique multiplicative decomposition, always resulting in the number itself and 1.
- Every integer has a unique multiplicative decomposition, meaning it can only be expressed in one way as a product of its factors.
- The multiplicative decomposition method applies only to whole numbers.
Multiplicative Decomposition
- Multiplicative decomposition is breaking down a number into its constituent factors (numbers that divide evenly into the original number).
- The number 30 can be multiplicatively decomposed as 3 x 5 x 2.
- The multiplicative decomposition of a prime number is the number itself and 1.
- Any integer can be uniquely expressed through multiplicative decomposition.
- Multiplicative decomposition only applies to whole numbers.
- The multiplicative decomposition of an integer always includes 1 as a factor.
- A composite number (a number with more than two factors) can be multiplicatively decomposed in multiple ways.
- The multiplicative decomposition of an even number doesn't necessarily result in only odd factors.
- Multiplicative decomposition can be used to solve quadratic equations.
- The factors that result from the multiplicative decomposition of a number are not always relatively prime (having no common factors other than 1).
