∙ 11y agoAs a product of its prime factors: 2*2*2*3*3 = 72
72 = 8 x 9 = 23 x 32
Exponents are used to replace repeated factors. Prime numbers won't use exponents because they don't have repeated factors. To express the prime factorization of a particular composite number using exponents, just count. 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 72 23 x 32 = 72
Exponents (powers) are just a way of notating repeated factors. The prime factorization of 72 is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 The prime factorization of 72 is 2^3 x 3^2
It is: 2*2*2*3*3 = 72
72 = 32 x 23
As a product of its prime factors: 2*2*2*3*3 = 72
72 = 8 x 9 = 23 x 32
2,548 = 2 x 2 x 7 x 7 x 13 OR 22 x 72 x 13
3234 = 2 x 3 x 72 x 11
That's prime factors. 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 72
2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 = 72
98 is an even number, thus it is divisible by 2; 98/2 = 49. 49 is simply 72. Since both 2 and 7 are prime numbers, the prime factorization of 98 is 2 X 72.
The prime factors of 72 are: 2 and 3.
72 = 23*32
3 x 3 x 7 x 7 or 32 x 72
