how can exponent can make it easier to write an expression with a repeated factor in the product
It is in exponents: 22*3*52*7 = 2100
As a product of its prime factors in exponents: 22*3*52 = 300
As a product of its prime factors in exponents: 25*3*52 = 2400 Or as 2.4*103 in scientific notation
811
As a product of its prime factors in exponents: 2^3 times 5^3 = 1000

22 x 32 = 36
23 x 3 = 24
36 = 22 x 32
As a product of its prime factors in exponents it is: 25*55 = 100,000
As a product of its prime factors in exponents: 22*3*52 = 300
five square times four cubed
22 x 32 = 36
The prime factorization of 216 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3. To make things shorter, this can also be written with exponents: 23 x 33
You don't find an LCM with exponents. Exponents are just a shorter way to write it down after you find it. The LCM of 8 and 27 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3. That can also be written as 23 x 33
