Question
Write the exponent of $2$ in the price factorization of $144.$
✓
Answer
Using the factor tree for prime factorization, we have:
$144 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 3 144 = 2^4 \times 3^2$
Hence the exponent of 2 in 144 is 4.
$144 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 3 144 = 2^4 \times 3^2$
Hence the exponent of 2 in 144 is 4.
