This is exactly what I was looking for. I'm not in 8th grade, but I am preparing for a masters degree. (I wish I would have known in high school that I would need this later) :D
grade 10 and struggling with arithmetic geometric sequences because of lots of GCD and shenanigans. THANK YOU SO MUCH this helped clear what I was missing!!!!
Hello, I'm an 8th grader whom just spent about 2 and a half hours fatorizing the number 225.then I finally got tired and looked on RUclips to see if anything could help me. And this video did just that. Thank u so much u helped me a lot. God bless you ❤️🎉💕
That’s fabulous! I’m so pleased. My second vid on this has an example which has repeating primes. I think that might actually be a bit better - I was getting stronger with the method and the thinking. Doesn’t ‘guess and check’ just suck the life out of you? I loathe that approach and I love this one for its speed and clarity. 😃🤗🤩💕
@@LetsDoMath yah, I rly don't like the guess and check method. It takes too long. (and it is very irritating if I must say) but this is an organized method and I rly enjoy doing it. Thax again so much.
I ma in grade 5 and I was struggling on this kind of question.I am preparing for IMO SOF. IMO is impossible to do. This video helped me a lot. BEST VIDEO EVER
Great stuff. The second one, with repeated prime factors is a bit stronger I think. Probably because I’d done a lot more practice with this strategy and was much more comfortable with it. In this first video, I’d only just come up with the method. Pretty exciting stuff though, to be able to suddenly get all those pesky factors, where previously, no matter how hard I tried, I’d miss at least a couple of factors. Now, that’s a thing of the past.
hi!! advanced grade 6 level student here, this is literally the BEST method i know. Thank you so much!! gotta do homework now i am 2 days behind schedule and my class is tomorrow!!
Cool! I was delighted when I first thought of it and tried it out! That whole thing of taking anew line each time was just my way of keeping straight what I’d actually done first time.I was kind of surprised when it suddenly all came together! I’m glad you like it too, and thanks for your note. 🤗😃😎💕
Thank you so so much for this, it helped me a lot! And Instead of being on my phone or any type of device all the time, i think i shouldve just studied. You made math even more easy for me, thank you so much!
They make phones enticing and engaging, probably too much so. It takes some willpower to put it face down, turn it off and do something more productive instead. Good for you, coming back to the math with solid purpose! If you put in regular practice at solving problems, you'll really see the benefit quickly - in terms of how quickly you think through a problem, and the success you have at solving those problems. Practice really is the key. And it's a pleasure to help, of course! 🤗😉😃
Sorry Grace. It IS a bit fiddly, but if you can stick with it, it does work. If you're doing smaller numbers, you can just go with one of the other methods in the playlist Factors, Prime Factors.
Maybe take a look at the second vid where there are repeating primes. That might help you to see a second example. It IS quite a headache to get your head around. Tbh most of the examples you’ll get I would expect to be 2-digit numbers, and values for which you can immediately find 2 factor pairs. Like 54 is from 6x9. Find the primes of 6 (2 and 3) and the primes of 9 (3x3). Now it’s easy enough to get all your combos I think.
Wow! I'm from the Philippines and competing in math Olympiads! I need to find all factors so I can know which has 4 factors. They were large numbers but thanks for this method! 🎉
Take a look at the second one too, with repeating primes as part of the decomposition. Tbh, I don’t know that we need this very often. I came up with this method in answer to the really horrible times when I’ve seen a class be told to find all the factors using ‘guess and check’. That approach is disheartening for me, never mind seeing kids’ confidence get crushed that way! We want to enable kids as mathematicians, not leave them feeling unable to do it, or even find a way n to start beyond crappy guess n check!
Isn't is crazy that some people charge to teach this But.. the students are saved by these kind of generous u tubers making vids that really hepls us! Thanx❤
Glad you asked that. There’s a second video showing exactly this scenario. 😃 Have you been on my website? It’s so easy to spot it there. Go to the Resources page (click that link on the signpost), scroll down to the section on prime factorization, and you’ll see it at the end of the list there. 🤗
Thanks very much, I’m glad it helps. If you use my website letsdomath.ca you’ll easily find lots of stuff to help. It’s all set out in topic groups and leads you through each area I’ve covered. There is a second vid I made using this method for finding all the factors, and I think it’s really helpful because it uses repeating primes, and in that vid I use both dividing by a prime to reduce the number, and factor tree. You can do that - mix and match methods for ease and speed. I should say that often, Factorizing questions have smaller numbers, and often you can do them just with your tables knowledge and not need this method. I made these videos because I was upset by something I saw in class one day. As a supporting supply teacher, I observed students given values to factorize that were too big for them and they were told to use ‘guess and check’ to find every factor. Those poor kids struggled and felt so discouraged by the end using this miserable time-wasting ‘strategy’. So I thought up a way to solve anything a teacher might reasonably throw at you. I hate wasting time in math class, there’s a lot to get through and confidence is built by feeling success, not by being discouraged because we haven’t got the tools to solve a problem. Now you have the tools! 😃🤗🥰
After going through your video and working out the factors for 210, I tried working out a random number, 432. I'm confused with how this method works with a number such as 432. After prime factorizing I'm left with 2 to the power of 4 and 3 to the power of 3 and I'm not sure how that works to show me all the factors of 432. How would you work out 432?
I made a second vid on this method covering a number that gave repeated primes. That will help you. It’s in my playlist Factors, Prime Factors. If you go through my website letsdomath.ca it’s even easier to locate.
How do you know if you have correctly multiplied all of the conceivable combinations of prime numbers together? That part is the only part that is confusing to me.
Hmm. I haven't come up with a 'how to check you've got them all' strategy. Just this, to make sure that you've got everything. Sorry, I don't have an answer to your question at this point except to ask for care and attention as you're going at it. Wish I had a definitive answer for you.
Fabulous! I’m really glad it helps him. I’m not sure if the second video I made on this is simpler to understand; you can be the judge on that. But that one covers a number that features repeating primes, and I think that’s a useful thing to see too. 😃😎💕
I swear. I am at "to simplify radical expressions" already and I was given numbers like 180,360 etc and I seriously cant do it. I really loved this video so much Thank you ma'am!!!!!
Thank you very much! I think the next one, with the repeating primes is possibly a bit better. It also has some music I thought was kind of fun for the part where you collect all the primes. I think maybe I had a better handle on the process on the next one. It might be a bit clearer. On this first one I was so excited I'd worked a way of doing it on paper I had to get a vid out immediately. With your 180,360... are you using repeated division using prime divisors? That's a stinky one, by the way; I just did it. Do you know the rule of divisibility for 3? I have a vid on it. Here's the link: ruclips.net/video/xdunx3IbkeI/видео.html I got down to 167. It looked fishy so I googled it: it's prime. Like I said, that's stinky. If you didn't already know the rule of divisibility for 3, this is really going to help you on your prime factorization problems. 😉🤗😎💕
I’ve NEVER had it explained to me at all! It’s always seemed like some kind of arcane magic that I just couldn’t get. Then when I thought about it through prime numbers, I came up with this way of combining them, and it really works! The second vid, which has repeated primes as part of the prime factorization is maybe a bit easier to understand. Plus it’s got a fun little music break during the phase of pulling out the different factorization. Anyway... I’m really pleased this helps you too! 😉😃🤗😎🤩
Your videos are really nice 👍 . I found this video when I was in trouble in finding factors of a factors fast 💨, and as a coincidence my hard number was also 210 😊😊🙏🙏😯😯
Thanks very much! I think they will really find the next one helpful too. That has an example with repeating primes. It’s also in the playlist Factors, Prime Factors. 😃😎🤩
Great stuff. Did you see the second vid on this as well? That uses a value that decomposes to repeating primes (2s and 3s). I nailed it on that vid! 😃🤩🤗😎😉
So with those lines, I'm showing you all the different combinations you can make. You need to capture every single combination in order to find every single factor. In the second video on this technique, the one where I have a number that has repeating prime factors, I show it in a different way, and maybe that will be clearer for you. Here's the link: ruclips.net/video/B2srNYqVbZ0/видео.html
Perfect! I’m always happy to help. My videos are sorted into playlists so you can quickly find what you need. There are more playlists than you can see on one screen, so you have to use the arrow to move to the right and see more. 🤗😃😎💕
1. i love your pencil pfp!! 2. What is the main problem with finding out the factors of 161? just do the process but divide it with another factor that isn't 2 (since 161 can't be divided by 2)
That’s great! Glad to help. You might find the second vid on this very helpful too. That one uses repeating primes: 3x3x3x3 and 2x2 if I remember my values right. It has a fun little bit during the collect all the factors step... Its also in my playlist Factors, Prime Factors. 😃🤗🤩
Let's Do Math It is very much the same idea. But the way its done makes it easier for like the factors ending up like: 2x5x11 where it is 11 to the power of 2
That was a 'D'Oh!' moment then. I've had them too, don't worry. Look at it as a practice run. Seriously, I'm very glad this helped you. Every time I do this I can't get over how cool it is! I've seen students be given 'guess and check' and faff about with that for a whole lesson period on just 2 numbers, getting increasingly frustrated as they go along. If they stick with that approach, they will forever think it's some crazy magic thing they can never get. This way, we have a tool to use and we can get to work and get the job done!
@@LetsDoMath By the way, could you please tell me what to do when a number has more than 4 Prime Factors like 2592 which has the prime factors 2*2*2*2*2*3*3*3*3?
Glad you like it.,I was really happy when I worked it out. These kind of questions have always left me missing a couple of factors out. Not any more! 😉😎💕
Hi there. Just my personal preference, really. Any time I have an even number I just always start with 2. Of course you could also start with 5. Order doesn't matter as long as you pick all those primes up - just whatever seems easiest is fine.
For 108, you know that’s from 12x9, don’t you? Do you get that right off the bat. It’s even, so you know 2 is a factor. Divide 108 by 2 and get 54. Divide by 2 again and get 27. 2 crops up twice so 4 is a factor. Divide 108 by 4 and get 27 (already found that one, but you can see now you’ve confirmed 4. Think about 3… is it a factor? Well 3 is a factor if 9 and 12… yes it’s a factor. 108 divided by 3 = 36 Thinking in terms of those rainbows we use when we start factoring… 1 x108 on extreme outer edges Then 2x 54 Then 3x36 Then 4x27 2 and 3 are factors, so 6 is too. 108 divided by 6 = 18 Then 6x18 And in the middle spot, 9x12 You do get 12 factors. Did you forget 1x108?
It's really cool to find all factors of any number but what if the prime factorization gives us factors of more than 4 digits how do we will make pairs of factor to get final answer ?? I hope you will answer my comment so I could be clear until exams
Hi there. So I started with 2 because it's even (it's just my standard way of working). If a number ends in zero, I could also start with 5, because 5 is also clearly a factor.
If it's odd... well, hopefully your teacher curates numbers carefully for you, like I would. So if a number is odd, you should check to see if 3 is a factor. Use the rule of divisibility for 3 to check this out. I have a vid on this if you don't already know the rule. :o)
This video is awesome, but I have a question! Do I have to check every time if two numbers have to same product as the 3 prime number product for the combinations part? thank you so much!
Did you look at the second one, where there are repeating primes? I think seeing it a second time with different numbers will help. Basically it’s just combining all the primes in every possible combination. And to be honest, I doubt this will come up much. In a test or exam it’s likely much smaller numbers. I came up with this method because that whole ‘guess-and-check’ method wasn’t cutting it. And seeing students struggle and just give up doesn’t work for me. We need a system to ensure we catch them all. Then it takes on an aspect of fun because you can actually do it. When you’re in guess-and-check, it’s such a frustrating state, in my view.
For 11+, make sure you are strong in multiplication, and ho through all the fractions stuff you have covered so far. Review and sort out any issues with practice and vids on www.letsdomath.ca I hope you breeze through it with ease and confidence, to a stellar result at the end. 🤩🤗👍😃
Have you done prime factorization? If you’re new to that then this technique is not right for you yet. First get really confident with prime factorization. If your teacher wants you to find all the factors at this stage, it won’t be tricky numbers, it’ll be something within your multiplication tables knowledge (144 or less), so you don’t need this, and if you try it too soon, it’ll only end in frustration. I don’t want that for you! I came up with this technique in response to seeing a keen class become more and more disheartened trying to solve all the factors for a big number using ‘guess and check’ as directed by their teacher.
hey! i loved ur teaching method! My math teacher is soo strict and i was weak in finding factors so u saved my cheek from getting a slap😂🤣🤣😂 by the way i am ur biggest fan now! love, Sukhada
I’m glad you get such a lot out of my videos. Are you joking that your teacher will slap your face if you don’t get it right? That’s assault. In Canada a teacher would lose their teaching licence for such an act, and be prosecuted for assault on a child!
@@orangeavocado7124 India is a phenomenal place, quite right to be proud to be Indian! Some years ago I travelled to Goa and it was just gorgeous! One of my favourite memories from the trip was zapping around with our friend on the auto rickshaw. He looked after us for a few days as we explored the area. One day we went off diving in the Indian Ocean. I have never dived in water that actually felt warm before. It was an odd dive. Very soupy, so it was poor visibility, but once you descend to the shallow floor, some gorgeous fish among the rocks. If you ever have trouble on the math, just give me a shout, if I can help, I will. 🤗😉😃💕
@@LetsDoMath I do have it you see my grandma tests me a lot and i boasted it to her that i will solve it in any 3 digit number and she told me to do 987 I was totally confused so if u can make the factors of 987 using the first trick it will be helpful! love Sukhada
I made a second vid for examples where a prime is repeated. You will find it easier to get to exactly the right video by using my website as your portal to the videos. Here’s a link to the contents of my RUclips channel www.letsdomath.ca/contents
Got bored during quarantine and felt like doing random math , but extremely amplified for fun. Long story short I ended up needed all the factors of this one number that is in the quintillions. I tried my tried and true guess and check method and after not even Making it remotely close to getting all of them that way, I tried using online calculators to cheat and give me the answer. Problem was that the numbers I was using were too much for any of the online calculators to do. I'm hoping this method works at getting them all. 🤓
Well if you ended up creating a number that has hideous primes, it's not going to work, cos you're not going to spot them. If worst comes to worst, you can always go techy on it and use a prime factorization calculator...
Lucky you! It really sucks to be stuck with the lesson where you're told "use guess and check to find all the factors." I hated that so much I came up with this method in fact!
This is exactly what I was looking for. I'm not in 8th grade, but I am preparing for a masters degree. (I wish I would have known in high school that I would need this later) :D

Your videos are really nice 👍 . I found this video when I was in trouble in finding factors of a factors fast 💨, and as a coincidence my hard number was also 210 😊😊🙏🙏😯😯
What a nice note! I’m glad my video helped you. It’s good todo a bunch if prime factorization problems - it makes your math muscles stronger 💪 😉😃😎💕🤗
Love this. Time to teach to my students :)
Thanks very much! I think they will really find the next one helpful too. That has an example with repeating primes. It’s also in the playlist Factors, Prime Factors. 😃😎🤩
It helped me a lot. Thank you ma'am..
Great stuff. Did you see the second vid on this as well? That uses a value that decomposes to repeating primes (2s and 3s).
I nailed it on that vid! 😃🤩🤗😎😉
Thank you so much, i was confused but now everything is fine
ths video is so nice! i got how to find all the factrs of a number
GREAT! Well done! 😃🤗🤩💕
Thank you very much. Good work 👍🏻👏🏻
🤗😃🥰
thank you so much you don,t know with this method i definetly save my very much of time in exam
3:27 I'm a little confused with this part of the method..
So with those lines, I'm showing you all the different combinations you can make. You need to capture every single combination in order to find every single factor.
In the second video on this technique, the one where I have a number that has repeating prime factors, I show it in a different way, and maybe that will be clearer for you. Here's the link: ruclips.net/video/B2srNYqVbZ0/видео.html
@@LetsDoMath Thank you!
thank you ma'am you helped us so much.
Glad to help. 🤗😃
Omg thank you so much it really helps me in exam ,
My pleasure! 😉🤗😎🤩
Nice thanks
Glad to help 😃
And from this time I am going to see your videos when in doubt 🥰🥰🥰
Perfect! I’m always happy to help. My videos are sorted into playlists so you can quickly find what you need. There are more playlists than you can see on one screen, so you have to use the arrow to move to the right and see more. 🤗😃😎💕
Thanks. It helped me so much. 😊
👍 Great stuff! 😃
Thanks a lot.
I just found that how to make it easier for my boy, who is in class "3".
And here I got it.
Thanks a lot mam.
Most welcome 😊
Really cool vid!! But what if there is a number like 161. Im really stuck there so can you answer me?
1. i love your pencil pfp!!
2. What is the main problem with finding out the factors of 161? just do the process but divide it with another factor that isn't 2 (since 161 can't be divided by 2)
@@marschocobars ty for the compliment and ty for the answer!!
@@gamermon3786 youre welcome!! i just had a test w HCF and stuff recently so this was also useful for me :3
you're video is very very very helpful
Superb trick thanks for helping with my exam 🙏🙏🙏
Look at the one on repeating primes too. I think that’s very helpful.
Thank you soo much it helped me a lot !!!❤❤😊
That’s great! Glad to help. You might find the second vid on this very helpful too. That one uses repeating primes: 3x3x3x3 and 2x2 if I remember my values right. It has a fun little bit during the collect all the factors step... Its also in my playlist Factors, Prime Factors. 😃🤗🤩
This video is very helpful thanks.
Good to know. Glad to help.
And I thought i was the only one to know this in grade 8 but looks to me 6 years later its been discovered in a bit harder way😂
Ok now you have my interest piqued. I want to see your way to find all the factors! You got a vid on this? I gotta know if there’s an easier way.
Let's Do Math It is very much the same idea. But the way its done makes it easier for like the factors ending up like: 2x5x11 where it is 11 to the power of 2
Let's Do Math I dont have a video because no one ever understood me when showing it.
Let's Do Math ooo yea. And mine will show you if it correct.
PJ Furious will you post a video on this? If there’s something simpler or more elegant, I would love to see it.
Thank you Let's Do Math i understood very clearly may god bless you :)
Thanks for telling I think I will do Great on my test thank you so much :)))))))))
The second vid, with the repeated primes is maybe even more helpful.
@@LetsDoMath Thanks but I've already done my test, after watching your vid the test was easy!!
I got 37/43 LETS GOO THANK YOU SO MUCH
Ooo thx so much.it was really helpful.i was stuck in finding all the factors but now I’m super okay!!😃😃😃😍
That's fabulous! Well done! This will no longer make you waste time struggling then. Without this method, I faff around for such a long time!
I just spent precious minutes trying to factor out 468 when I was supposed to be factoring 225. Nevertheless, thank you very much!
That was a 'D'Oh!' moment then. I've had them too, don't worry. Look at it as a practice run. Seriously, I'm very glad this helped you. Every time I do this I can't get over how cool it is! I've seen students be given 'guess and check' and faff about with that for a whole lesson period on just 2 numbers, getting increasingly frustrated as they go along. If they stick with that approach, they will forever think it's some crazy magic thing they can never get. This way, we have a tool to use and we can get to work and get the job done!
@@LetsDoMath Yeah your method works really well! Thank you again!
@@LetsDoMath By the way, could you please tell me what to do when a number has more than 4 Prime Factors like 2592 which has the prime factors 2*2*2*2*2*3*3*3*3?
man, it just awesome. it saved out my time. thanks a lot.
You're most welcome!
Thank you! This helped me so much in my test.
Awesome! Glad to help! 😃🥰
Very nice trick I was confusing to get simplest form Nice trick it is so brilliant
Glad you like it.,I was really happy when I worked it out. These kind of questions have always left me missing a couple of factors out. Not any more! 😉😎💕
Hello, so I was wondering why we used 2 to divide 210 and used 5 after.
Hi there. Just my personal preference, really. Any time I have an even number I just always start with 2. Of course you could also start with 5. Order doesn't matter as long as you pick all those primes up - just whatever seems easiest is fine.
@@LetsDoMath Thanks, But I was wondering why you used 5 other than any other numbers.
But how should I do it with 108? With this method I get 10 factors, not 12 based on google
For 108, you know that’s from 12x9, don’t you? Do you get that right off the bat. It’s even, so you know 2 is a factor. Divide 108 by 2 and get 54. Divide by 2 again and get 27.
2 crops up twice so 4 is a factor. Divide 108 by 4 and get 27 (already found that one, but you can see now you’ve confirmed 4. Think about 3… is it a factor? Well 3 is a factor if 9 and 12… yes it’s a factor. 108 divided by 3 = 36
Thinking in terms of those rainbows we use when we start factoring…
1 x108 on extreme outer edges
Then 2x 54
Then 3x36
Then 4x27
2 and 3 are factors, so 6 is too. 108 divided by 6 = 18
Then 6x18
And in the middle spot, 9x12
You do get 12 factors. Did you forget 1x108?
@@LetsDoMathI have so much respect for you, that you came back 6 years later to answer a struggling student’s question. Thank you for all you do.
Thanks.it helped me alot
Great stuff! Glad to help.
Thank u so so much 💕 this is very helpful for me 😊
Thanks for your note, I’m glad I could help 😉😎🤗😃🤩💕
It's really cool to find all factors of any number but what if the prime factorization gives us factors of more than 4 digits how do we will make pairs of factor to get final answer ?? I hope you will answer my comment so I could be clear until exams
Thank u so much i love ur work❤
Thank you so much! 😃🤗🥰
Hi thx for the video! What do you divide the number by if it’s is odd? In this case, you divided it by 2, but how about when it’s odd?
Hi there. So I started with 2 because it's even (it's just my standard way of working). If a number ends in zero, I could also start with 5, because 5 is also clearly a factor.
If it's odd... well, hopefully your teacher curates numbers carefully for you, like I would. So if a number is odd, you should check to see if 3 is a factor. Use the rule of divisibility for 3 to check this out. I have a vid on this if you don't already know the rule. :o)
This video is awesome, but I have a question! Do I have to check every time if two numbers have to same product as the 3 prime number product for the combinations part? thank you so much!
Did you look at the second one, where there are repeating primes? I think seeing it a second time with different numbers will help.
Basically it’s just combining all the primes in every possible combination.
And to be honest, I doubt this will come up much. In a test or exam it’s likely much smaller numbers. I came up with this method because that whole ‘guess-and-check’ method wasn’t cutting it. And seeing students struggle and just give up doesn’t work for me. We need a system to ensure we catch them all. Then it takes on an aspect of fun because you can actually do it. When you’re in guess-and-check, it’s such a frustrating state, in my view.
I'm preparing for 11+ it's so useful
For 11+, make sure you are strong in multiplication, and ho through all the fractions stuff you have covered so far. Review and sort out any issues with practice and vids on www.letsdomath.ca
I hope you breeze through it with ease and confidence, to a stellar result at the end. 🤩🤗👍😃
Thank u, i was looking for this
I'm grade5 and they give us these numbers
So so so so so helpful . thank you so very much
It’s my pleasure, I’m glad I could help. 😉😁😎🤗
Im confused with the first part, do you start with the lowest prime factor to divide?
Have you done prime factorization? If you’re new to that then this technique is not right for you yet.
First get really confident with prime factorization.
If your teacher wants you to find all the factors at this stage, it won’t be tricky numbers, it’ll be something within your multiplication tables knowledge (144 or less), so you don’t need this, and if you try it too soon, it’ll only end in frustration. I don’t want that for you!
I came up with this technique in response to seeing a keen class become more and more disheartened trying to solve all the factors for a big number using ‘guess and check’ as directed by their teacher.
hey! i loved ur teaching method! My math teacher is soo strict and i was weak in finding factors so u saved my cheek from getting a slap😂🤣🤣😂
by the way i am ur biggest fan now!
love,
Sukhada
I’m glad you get such a lot out of my videos. Are you joking that your teacher will slap your face if you don’t get it right? That’s assault. In Canada a teacher would lose their teaching licence for such an act, and be prosecuted for assault on a child!
The second video on this features repeated prime factors... twos and threes. I think that video might be good for you too. 😃🤗😎💕🤗
@@LetsDoMath i am in india sadly but proud to be indian!
JAI HIND
@@orangeavocado7124 India is a phenomenal place, quite right to be proud to be Indian!
Some years ago I travelled to Goa and it was just gorgeous! One of my favourite memories from the trip was zapping around with our friend on the auto rickshaw. He looked after us for a few days as we explored the area. One day we went off diving in the Indian Ocean. I have never dived in water that actually felt warm before. It was an odd dive. Very soupy, so it was poor visibility, but once you descend to the shallow floor, some gorgeous fish among the rocks.
If you ever have trouble on the math, just give me a shout, if I can help, I will. 🤗😉😃💕
@@LetsDoMath I do have it you see my grandma tests me a lot and i boasted it to her that i will solve it in any 3 digit number and she told me to do 987
I was totally confused so if u can make the factors of 987 using the first trick it will be helpful!

The best channel
Thank you very much. I'm sure we all just do our best. I know I do. That's why it takes so long to make each one. Sigh. Sorry about that everyone.
Wow... that's great! Thank you so much

What about when there are exponents involved in the prime factorization
I made a second vid for examples where a prime is repeated.
You will find it easier to get to exactly the right video by using my website as your portal to the videos. Here’s a link to the contents of my RUclips channel www.letsdomath.ca/contents
Im in 5th grade but like dude we learnt prime factorisation in 4th LMAO,but this helped a lot thank you so much!
Got bored during quarantine and felt like doing random math , but extremely amplified for fun. Long story short I ended up needed all the factors of this one number that is in the quintillions. I tried my tried and true guess and check method and after not even Making it remotely close to getting all of them that way, I tried using online calculators to cheat and give me the answer.
Problem was that the numbers I was using were too much for any of the online calculators to do.
I'm hoping this method works at getting them all. 🤓
Well if you ended up creating a number that has hideous primes, it's not going to work, cos you're not going to spot them. If worst comes to worst, you can always go techy on it and use a prime factorization calculator...
im in grade 6 and my teacher is teaching us this t-t
this really helped !!
Lucky you! It really sucks to be stuck with the lesson where you're told "use guess and check to find all the factors." I hated that so much I came up with this method in fact!
Do yourself a favour... watch the second vid on this too, that one has repeating primes in it! It's also in my playlist 'Factors, Prime Factors'.
@@LetsDoMath ok! thank you!
hi! what if there's a repetition of prime numbers? are we going to include that in the next step after dividing by prime numbers? thank you!
I made a second video on this using repeated primes. You’ll see there. 😉🤗
It help me a lot. Thank you so much😊
Thanks prepared for grade 8 and in ur ne subscriber😊
Thank u very much for the video
My pleasure. 😃😉💕
Ok, why did you divide by 5 after dividing by 2 in the first example of dividing 210?
Half of 210 is 105. Anything ending in 5 (or zero) is divisible by 5. I always take the easiest and most obvious divisor and use that.
@@LetsDoMathI had no idea. Now for the hard part that you’ve more than likely made easy! Thanks so much!
@@advgym glad to help. What’s the number you are doing? I’ll do it alongside you right now. I’m not ready for supper yet and I’m into this!
