2.3, due on Sept 2

1) (Difficult) I struggled to understand Thrm 2.3.4. I have no idea what a noncommon prime is. I also didn't understand the notation.

2) (Reflective) I can connect this material to previous things I have learned. It seems I have seen a lot of these proofs before, like the proof of Lemma 2.3.1, Thrm 2.3.1, and the Fundamental Thrm of Arithmetic. I like seeing things that I have seen before because I confirms that all mathematics is connected. It is not disconnected like some people might think.
