MATH INVESTIGATION 4.2 FACTORIZATIONS on the Math Investigator determines if a number is prime or composite. If a number is composite‚ it prints all its factors‚ the number of factors‚ and its prime factorization. The numbers 1‚ 2‚ 4‚ and 6 have 1‚ 2‚ 3‚ and 4 factors‚ respectively: 1 has only 1 as a factor; 2 has 1 and 2 as factors; 4 has 1‚ 2‚ and 4 as factors; and 6 has 1‚ 2‚ 3‚ and 6 as factors. These factors are illustrated by the rectangles shown here. Starting Points for Investigations
