Express the prime factorization of the numbers (a) 596 (b) 240 in exponential form.
The prime factorization is expressing the given number as a product of prime numbers.
Answer: 596 = 22 × 149 and 240 = 24 × 3 × 5
Let's find the prime factorization of the given numbers
Explanation:
In prime factorization, we express the given number as a product of its prime factors.
The prime factorization of 596 is 2 × 2 × 149 = 22 × 149
The prime factorization of 240 is 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 × 5 = 24 × 3 × 5
Thus, prime factorization of the numbers in exponential form : 596 = 22 × 149 and 240 = 24 × 3 × 5.
