MODIFIED MERSENNE NUMBERS AND PRIMES Several thousand
... One notices that many of these finite sums add up to prime numbers such as for N=1, 2, 4, and 6 while for others such as for N=3 and 5 produce composite numbers. The French cleric Marin Mersenne(1588-1648) observed from these results that22-1=3, 23-1=7, 25-1=31, and 27-1=127 That is , if one takes t ...

Prime Factorization
... Jason needs to find all of the factors of 60 for his math homework. Follow the steps he used to find the prime factorization of 60. Step 1 Find two numbers with a product of 60 (do not use 1 and 60). Write them as branches of a factor tree. ...
