text: ## How do you find the factors of 32?
  
  See explanation.
  
  To look for factors of a specified number you start from the smallest possible factors.
  
  ##32## is an evan number, so ##2## is the smallest factor:
  
  ##32-:2=16##
  
  Again ##16## is even, so ##2## is also the factor of ##16##:
  
  ##16-:2=8##
  
  ##8-:2=4##
  
  ##4-:2=2##
  
  ##2## is prime, so it only is divisible by ##1## and itself.
  
  Finally we can write that: ##32=2xx2xx2xx2xx2=2^5##
