Is the first number divisible by the second? Use prime factorization. a) 225 and 27

  • 1

225 is not divisible by 27. The prime factorization of 225 is 3² x 5², while 27 is 3³. Since 27 has a higher power of 3, it cannot divide 225.

    1. The prime factorization of 225 is 3² x 5² and that of 27 is 3³. For divisibility, the prime factorization of the divisor must be included in the dividend’s factorization. Here, 27 has 3³, while 225 only has 3², making divisibility impossible. Thus, 225 is not divisible by 27 because the power of 3 in 225’s factorization is insufficient to accommodate the full factorization of 27.
