To find the prime factorization of 54, you can start by dividing it by the smallest prime number, which is 2. Then continue dividing the quotient by prime numbers until you reach 1.

(54 ÷ 2 = 27)
(27 ÷ 3 = 9)
(9 ÷ 3 = 3)

The prime factorization of 54 is (2 \times 3 \times 3 \times 3), or more succinctly written as (2 \times 3^3).
