Question

Write 600 as the product of prime factors.
Give your answer in index form

Answer 1

`{2}^(3) * {5}^(3)`

Explanation:

divide 600 by 2until two can not divide further and then divide also by 5 untill you get only 5 remaining

Answer 2

`2^3*3*5^2`

Explanation:

The question is asking for the prime factorization of 600.

600 = 100 * 6 = 2*2*2*3*5*5

100 = 10 * 10 = 2 * 5 * 2 * 5

6 = 2*3

600 =
`2^3*3*5^2`

Hope this helps :)

Have a nice day!
