Claire said that all the factors of 72 are multiples of the prime factors of 72. part a: what are the prime factors of 72? show your work. part b: which factors of 72 are multiples of its prime factors? part c: is claire's statement true? explain your thinking.

So in order to answer this question you have to know the prime factorization of 72 2^3 x 3^2 I know this is in the elementary section so they should be teacching you this stuff in 2nd grade 72
                                           36 x 2 
                                             18 x 2 x 2
                                               9 x 2x2 x2
                                                3 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2
   
                   

The answer would be 24mm

Cbecause they are equal so that means it is the same on both sides? ! hope this
