The product of a multiplication problem is 225−−−√ . What do you know about the factors?(1 point)

1 answer

The product of a multiplication problem being \(\sqrt{225}\) means that we need to simplify this expression to find the factors involved.

First, let's simplify \(\sqrt{225}\):

\[ \sqrt{225} = 15 \]

Now, the product of the factors of this multiplication problem equals 15. We can identify the integer factors of 15. They include:

  • \(1 \times 15 = 15\)
  • \(3 \times 5 = 15\)

Thus, the factors of the multiplication problem could be:

  1. \(1\) and \(15\)
  2. \(3\) and \(5\)

Additionally, \(-1\) and \(-15\) or \(-3\) and \(-5\) are also valid factor pairs since their product also yields 15 when multiplied together.

In summary, the factors of \(\sqrt{225}\) (or 15) are \(1, 3, 5, 15\) and also their negative counterparts.
