Q:

PLEASE HELP! Lina and Josh each made a factor tree to find the prime factorization of 126.Lana Josh126/ \ 3 42   / \ 6 7  / \2 3Josh 126/   \2  63    /   \  9   7Which statement explains the accuracy of the students’ work?a)Lina’s solution is correct because it expresses 126 as a product of prime factors.b)Josh’s solution is correct because the factor tree of every even number must begin with 2 and its factor pair.c)Both solutions are correct because they both express 126 as a product of factors.d)Neither solution is correct because the factor tree should have begun with 6 and 21.

Accepted Solution

A:
Its A if they are talking about a prime factorization tree.
