In summary, it is always a good idea to have someone else review your work for any potential errors or improvements. You can ask for feedback from the person who checked your work and compare it to your own understanding of the subject matter. It is not always necessary, but having someone else check your work can help catch any mistakes or offer new perspectives. If you disagree with the feedback you received, you can discuss your concerns and seek a third party opinion if necessary. Having someone else check your work is not considered cheating as long as they are not completing it for you or plagiarizing. Feedback and assistance are essential components of the scientific process.

Find the prime factorization of 6 in Q[sqrt(-1)].

Ans : Since 6 = 2*3
so 6 = (1+sqrt(-1)) (1-sqrt(-1)) *3 Q.E.D.

Do I need to add anything to it? Am I done with this question? Please kindly advise me. Thank you very much.
