Step-by-step explanation: Divide by successive primes:
900 / 2 = 450
450 / 2 = 225
225 / 3 = 75
75 / 3 = 25
25 / 5 = 5
5 / 5 = 1
Write down the prime factors:
2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 5 × 5
Write them in index form:
2² × 3² × 5²
Answer:
2∧2 . 3∧2 . 5∧2
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, it is important to divide the number by the minimum possible divisors until getting 1 as a result
900 ÷ 2 = 450
450 ÷ 2 = 225
225 ÷ 3 = 75
75 ÷ 3 = 25
25 ÷ 5 = 5
5 ÷ 5 = 1
Then the prime factors of 900 are 2 . 2 . 3 . 3 . 5 . 5 or 2∧2 . 3∧2 . 5∧2 because 2∧2 = 4 ; 3∧2 = 9 ; 5∧2 = 25 , and 4 . 9 . 25 = 900
