22 x 52 x 13
First you do the prime factorization without exponents. Then you use exponents to indicate repeated factors. For example, if a number has the prime factors 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 5, you write that as 23 x 32 x 5.
2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 = 216That can be shortened by the use of exponents.23 x 33 = 216
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
