Factor Down a Tree

The lesson of the day/ was making factor trees
There is just one thing the factors are prime
What are primes? They’re a special type of number
Only factors are 1 and itself

Chorus 1 : Factor down a tree
The lesson seemed strange to me
It never would come to me
Break down the number please
Factor down a tree

The number 9, branch it down with primes
You get 3 times 3
They are so prime

3 times 3, circle them for me
Yeah I can see a factor tree

Chorus 2: Factor down a tree
Break the number down for me
Branch it out in 2’s and 3’s
Circle all the primes for me
Factor down a tree

The number 12 - branch it 3x4
Now circle the 3 - branch the 4
You get 2x2 -you know just what to do
Just like the 3 before circle the 2’s

Chorus 2

You can simplify - give Powers (exponents) a try
You can square or cube all the like primes

Let’s try 24
Branch it 6x 4
Now it’s 3 x 2 x 2 x 2
SIMPLIFY!

Chorus 2
