Sam sent an email ro 3 friends on monday. each of the friends then sent an email to 3 friends on tuesday. on wednesday, each of those friends then sent an email to 3 friends. write the prime factorization of the number of emails that were sent on wednesday.

The answer is 3x3x3.

Step-by-step explanation:

A prime factorization consists in write down a multiplication in prime numbers. In this case we have that Sam sent an email to 3 friends on Monday, then all his friends an email to 3 friends more on Tuesday and the same happen on Wednesday. So this could be write as:

Monday: 3 emails

Tuesday: 9 emails

Wednesday: 27 emails

The question is to write the number of emails sent on Wednesday, so:

Is not enough because it has to be write in prime numbers:

Now the factorization is write in prime numbers. The answer is 3x3x3.

really really sorry if i'm

-12 -5(x + 4) = 3x

-12 - 5x - 20 = 3x

-12 - 20 - 5x = 3x

-32 - 5x = 3x

    + 5x   + 5x

-32 = 8x

8         8

- 4= x

lol.

it's ok we all do this sometimes.
