"how to find the prime factorization for a different number between 20 and 200."
You are not too clear on those instructions. What is meant by "a different number between 20 and 200" ?
I will pick a few such numbers,
(start nibbling away at it starting with small factors)
105 = 3*35
= 3*5*7

86 = 2*43

124 =2*62
= 2*2*31
Notice all the factors are prime numbers

3. Show how to find the prime factorization for another different number between 20 and 200.
divide possible factors (starting with 2) into the number

check any factors to make sure they don't have factors of their own

prime factors are what's left after all possible factoring

eg. starting with 16
... dividing by 2 yields 8
... dividing 8 by 2 yields 4
... dividing 4 by 2 yields 2
... the prime factors of 16 are ... 2 , 2 , 2 , 2
i got it thank u
