Answers Subjective Assessment-4
1. Since, 6 = 2 × 3 and 10 = 5 × 2
2. 1 and the number itself are not included in the prime factorisation of a composite
number.
3. The greatest four digit number is 9999
Therefore 9999 = 3 × 3 × 11 × 101
4. (a) 24 = 2 × 3 × 4
Since, 4 is composite. Hence, prime factorisation has not been done.
(b) 56 = 7 × 2 × 2 × 2
Since, all the factors are prime. Hence, prime factorisation has been done.
(c) 70 = 2 × 5 × 7
Since, all the factors are prime. Hence, prime factorisation has been done.
(d) 54 = 2 × 3 × 9
Since, 9 is composite. Hence prime factorisation has not been done.
5. Since, it is the smallest number. Therefore it will be the product of 4 smallest
prime numbers. So the number will be 2 × 3 × 5 × 7 = 210.
