Identifying large numbers in their factored form
Test your understanding of identifying large numbers in factored form by practicing it! Work through the below exercises to use it in practice.
🎙️
Identify the factors in the factored form of this number
🎙️
First let's find the prime factorization of 1500
🎙️
Now we can combine multiples of the same factor into that factor with an exponent
🎙️
And now we can line up the exponents to identify the factors
