Question

Find the prime factorization of 60

Answer 1

The answer is the bottom one because you always use exponents if there are 2 or more of the same prime number.

Answer 2

Hey there!


`2(2) = 4(3) = 12(5) = 60`


`2^2 =4 = 4(3) =12(5) = 60`

They are both prime factorization of
`60`

But, if you had to choose one then pick:
`2*2*3*5` (the first option)

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
