The Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic guarantees that:
Ano two primes are equal
Bprimes are infinite
Ccomposites factor uniquely
Dall integers are prime
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. composites factor uniquely
The theorem says: every composite number factorises into primes, and that factorisation is unique up to the order of the factors.
