Prime numbers are the building blocks of all natural numbers, as every number greater than 1 can be expressed as a product of prime numbers. A prime number is defined as a number greater than 1 that has no positive divisors other than 1 and itself:
$ p > 1 \text{ and } p \text{ has no divisors other than } 1 \text{ and } p $
This Prime Number Tree Worksheet uses factor trees to help students visualize the prime factorization of numbers. By breaking down composite numbers into their prime components using a tree diagram, learners can practice identifying primes, reinforce multiplication concepts, and gain confidence in understanding number structure in a fun and interactive way.
