Fundamental theorem of arithmetic

In mathematics, the fundamental theorem of arithmetic, also called the unique factorization theorem and prime factorization theorem, states that every integer greater than 1 can be represented uniquely as a product of prime numbers, up to the order of the factors. For example, The theorem says two things about this example: first, that 1200 can be represented as a product of primes, and second, that no matter how this is done, there will always be exactly four 2s, one 3, two 5s, and no other primes in the product. The requirement that the factors be prime is necessary: factorizations containing composite numbers may not be unique (for example, ). This theorem is one of the main reasons why 1 is not considered a prime number: if 1 were prime, then factorization into primes would not be unique; for example, This theorem generalizes to other algebraic structures, in particular to polynomial rings over a field. These structures are called unique factorization domains. (Wikipedia).

What is the Fundamental theorem of Algebra, really? | Abstract Algebra Math Foundations 217

Here we give restatements of the Fundamental theorems of Algebra (I) and (II) that we critiqued in our last video, so that they are now at least meaningful and correct statements, at least to the best of our knowledge. The key is to abstain from any prior assumptions about our understandin

Theory of numbers: Fundamental theorem of arithmetic

This lecture is part of an online undergraduate course on the theory of numbers. We use Euclid's algorithm to prove the fundamental theorem of arithmetic, that every positive number is a product of primes in an essentially unique way. We then use this to prove Euler's product formula fo
