Answer

$2^{3} \times 5^{2} \times 11$

Work Step by Step

Divide 2200 by 2 until the result is no longer divisible by 2. The number of times you divided by 2 becomes the exponent for the factor 2. $2^{3} × 315$ 275 is not divisible by 3. To continue with the prime factorization, divide 275 by 5 until it is no longer divisible by 5. The number of times you divided by 5 becomes the exponent for the factor 5. $2^{3} \times 5^{2} \times 11$
