If the number can be written as 2*3*5 it cannot be prime!
250 written in index form = 2.5 × 102

No. In the index form a number is expressed as a multiple of its prime factors whereas in the standard form it is expressed as a number between in the range [1, 10) multiplied by an integer power of 10. So, for example, 1728 in index form = 26*33 1728 in standard form = 1.728*103 The index form can only be used for integers.
Index form is where a number is expressed using exponents - one number to the power of another. For example, 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 is the same as 2 to the power of 5, written as 2^5. If you square a number, you write a small 2 above the number, and that is (the number)x(the number). So, it is there twice. If it was 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 there are five twos in the product, so it's 2 to the power of 5.

Writing Numbers in Index FormWe know that: So, we can write 8 as 23.Likewise, 27 can be written as 33and 125 can be written as 53.So far, we have considered numbers that have a group of the same factors. Sometimes, a number has more than one group of the same factors as shown in the following example.Example 20Write 200 in simplest index form.Solution:Key Termsimplest index form
Well, darling, to write 18 in index form, you simply express it as 2^1 x 3^2. That's the fancy math way of saying 2 to the power of 1 times 3 squared. So, there you have it, 18 all dressed up in its index form finery.
Index form
"index" is the singular form - "indices" is the plural :)

Index form is where a number is expressed as the exponents of its prime factors. At the moment, you have it as its prime factors. We have two 3s, so that can be given as 32 and we have four 4s, so that can be given as 44. Thus 3x3x4x4x4x4 in index form is 32x44
The possessive form of "index" is "index's." For example, "the index's values are displayed in alphabetical order."
Factor trees show the index form for each number.126 23 212=3*2*2728 92 4 3 32 272=2*2*2*3*3The index form is a number written down by the primes that make it up. Look at my examples if your not sure of what I mean
