Which of the following represents the prime factorisation of 60?


Options:
A .   2 x 2 x 3 x 5
B .   2 x 2 x 5
C .   2 x 2 x 3 
D .   2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 5
Answer: Option A
:
A

Prime factorisation is expressing a number as the product of its prime factors.
60 = 2 x 30
     = 2 x 2 x 15
     = 2 x 2 x 3 x 5
(2, 3 and 5 are prime numbers) 
Hence, the prime factorisation of 60 is 2 x 2 x 3 x 5.
