Answer:

120 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 5 = 2^3 * 3 * 5

180 = 2 * 2 * 3 * 3 * 5 = 2^2 * 3^2 * 5

300 = 2 * 2 * 3 * 5 * 5 = 2^2 * 3 * 5^2

Explanation:

Here, we want to write the given numbers as the product of their prime numbers

Prime numbers are numbers divisible by 1 and itself

We have the prime factorization as follows;

120 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 5 = 2^3 * 3 * 5

180 = 2 * 2 * 3 * 3 * 5 = 2^2 * 3^2 * 5

300 = 2 * 2 * 3 * 5 * 5 = 2^2 * 3 * 5^2
