Express each of the following as a product of prime factors only in exponential form:

(i) 108 × 192 (ii) 270

(iii) 729 × 64 (iv) 768

(i) 108 × 192

= (2 × 2 × 3 × 3 × 3) × (2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3)

= (2² × 3³) × (2⁶ × 3)

= 2^{6 + 2} × 3^{3 + 1} (a^m × aⁿ = a^m+n)

= 2⁸ × 3⁴

(ii) 270 = 2 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 5 = 2 × 3³ × 5

(iii) 729 × 64 = (3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3) × (2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2)

= 3⁶ × 2⁶

(iv) 768 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 = 2⁸ × 3
