📖 What is Prime Factorization?
- Prime factorization expresses a positive integer as a product of prime numbers
- A prime number is a natural number greater than 1 divisible only by 1 and itself (e.g. 2, 3, 5, 7, 11...)
- Every integer greater than 1 has a unique prime factorization (Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic)
- Example: 360 = 2³ × 3² × 5
