2. Two “factors” are multiplies together to product another number (the product).  So, for example, the prime factors of 10 are 2 and 5.  Prime factors that, themselves, have only factors of 1 and themselves.  Non-prime numbers, like 10, have prime factors.  Note that 1 is a factor of all integers.

   If the two factors are equal (the same), like 4*4=16, then each of them is called a “square root.”

   Note: a cube root is one of three equal factors of a number, for example, 2 is the cube root of 8 (that is, 2*2*2=8).

   Practice:

      What is the square root of 49?

      What is the square root of 100?

      What is the square root of 625?

      Memorize the squares of the numbers from 1 to 10, or 1 to 20  — that will be very helpful in math classes.
