Sure thing, darling. The prime factorization of 55 is 5 x 11. If we want to use exponents, we can write it as 5^1 x 11^1. So there you have it, sweetie, prime factor of 55 using exponents in a nutshell.
To find the prime factorization of a number, it helps to divide it by any obvious factors. In this case, 156 is even so we can divide by 2. Do this and we get 78, which is also even. Divide by 2 again and we get 39, which is divisible by 3. Do that and we get 13 which is prime. Thus the prime factorization of 156 is 2x2x3x13. If we want to use exponents this can be written as 22x3x13
