Start by dividing the number 64 by the smallest prime numbers, starting with the smallest prime, which is 2.

64 ÷ 2 = 32

2. Continuação das Divisões:

Agora, continue dividindo o resultado da etapa anterior por números primos menores, até que não seja mais possível fazer divisões inteiras.

32 ÷ 2 = 16

16 ÷ 2 = 8

8 ÷ 2 = 4

4 ÷ 2 = 2

3. Obtenção dos Fatores Primos:

Now, the numbers by which you divided 64 and got integer results are the prime factors of 64. In this case, we have 2 repetido 6 vezes.

4. Expressão da Fatoração:

Write the factorization of the number 64 using its prime factors. The full factorization of 64 is:

64 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2

These steps show how the number 64 can be factored into its prime components, which is helpful in understanding its structure and mathematical properties.
