Answer 1

43 32 24

Explanation:

Answer 2

4×4×4×3×3×2×2×2×2

I count 3 fours, 2 threes, 4 twos.

4×4×4×3×3×2×2×2×2

`= 4^3 3^2 2^4`

That might be the answer; we don't see the choices.

Since 4 is 2² we can take another step.

`= (2^2)^3 3^2 2^4`

`= 2^6 3^2 2^4`

`= 2^(10) 3^2`

That's the full prime factorization.

Answer: 2¹⁰ 3²
