How do you write the prime factorization of #20st#?

Answer 1

#20st = 2xx2xx5xxsxxt#

You need to write the given term or expression as the product of its prime factors. This is sometimes also called expanded form.

#20st = 2xx2xx5xxsxxt" "larr# these are all prime factors.

The variables are really easy to do because even if there are indices, you can see exactly how many of each there are.

So #36s^3t^2# would be expanded as:

#2xx2xx3xx3xxsxxsxxsxxtxxt#

To write the prime factorization of 20st, you first break down 20 into its prime factors, which are 2 and 5. Then, you incorporate the "st" into the factorization. So, the prime factorization of 20st would be 2 * 2 * 5 * s * t.
