Question

Write the prime factorization of 675 in exponents.

Answer 1

Prime factorization is the decomposition of a number into the prime numbers that add to the original number. The prime factorization of 12 for example is 2 * 2 * 3. If we have the same prime number occurring over once, we can add exponents. So, 12 's prime factorization can also be written as 22 * 3.

Answer 2

Here is another example to help you out

Answer 3

So, would 135*5 work?

Answer 4

3 x 3 x 3 x 5 x 5 would be 675. In exponential form as 3^3 x 5^2.

Answer 5

Also I made a mistake above I wrote 22 * 3 but it was supposed to be 2^2*3, sorry about that.
