 Prime Number – is a whole number greater than 1 which has only two
factors 1 and the number itself.
 Composite Number – is a whole number with three or more factors.
 Prime Factorization – a process of expressing a composite number as a
product of the prime factors.
B. Lesson Proper
1. Activity
“Stand if it is Prime and seat if it is Composite” I will flash card at a time. If the
number in the card is prime, you stand. If the number is composite, you must be

2 51 97 48 37 76

seated.
2. Analysis
How did you find the activity?
How did you know that it is prime?
How did you know that it is composite?
3. Abstraction
Samuel writes the following numbers on a piece of paper. 48, 57, 37, 91 and
76. He then ask Dave to identify the number which does not belong to the group.
Dave gives the correct answer. What is his answer?
What do you think is the basis of Dave in identifying the number which is
different from the rest?
 All five numbers have two digits so it cannot be used as a basis.
  Two of the numbers are even while three are odd, so again, this
classification does not make any one number different.
 How about finding all the factors of each number?
48 – 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48
57 – 1, 3, 19, 57
37 – 1, 37
91 – 1, 7, 13, 91
76 – 1, 2, 4, 19, 38, 76

Observe that that number 37 has only two factors, 1 and 37 (the number itself) while each of
the rest has other factors aside from 1 and itself.

A number is called Prime if it has only two factors. A few examples of prime numbers are 2,
13, 29, 37, and 83

On the other hand, numbers with more than two factors are called Composite. For instance,
4, 15, 48, 57, 91, and 76 are composite.

Every composite number can be expressed as product of its prime factors. This process is
called prime factorization. For example, let us find the prime factorization of 24 using the Factor
Tree Method. Let us then express the answer in exponential form.

The prime factorization of 24 is 2 x 2 x

2 x 2 x 3 or 23 x 3. To check if the prime
24
factorization is correct, we ask ourselves two
questions:

1. Are all factors prime already?

2. Is the product of the prime factors the
4 6 same with the given number?

In our given number, the prime factors are

2 and 3 which are both primes. The product of
2 x 2 x 2 x 3 is 24. Therefore, our prime
factorization of 24 is correct.

4. Application
Group the students into 3, and let them answer the activity sheet.
Direction: The first group who can submit and answer the activity sheet correctly
before 5 minutes will have additional 10 points and for those group who did not
finish the task for 5 minutes will have additional 5 points. So, help your teammates
to complete the task on time. God bless students!
IV. Evaluation
