Answer 2

ANSWER
The prime factorization of 36 is

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

EXPLANATION

We want to find the prime factorization of 36.

The prime numbers that are factors of 36 are

`2 \: and \: 3`

So we find the number of times these two prime factors will multiply to get 36.

Thus,


`36 = 2 * 2 * 3 * 3`

Thus gives

`36 = {2}^(2) * {3}^(2)`
