    2^9*3^4*7*11

    Step-by-step explanation:

    11*2*3 * 3*3 * 3*2 * 2*2*2 * 4*4*7.

    This is not a prime factorization because not all the numbers are prime.

    22 * 3 * 54 * 8 * 112

    break down the numbers until they are prime

    11*2 * 3 * 9*6 * 4*2 * 16*7

    11*2*3 * 3*3 * 3*2 * 2*2*2 * 4*4*7

    11*2*3 * 3*3 * 3*2 * 2*2*2 * 2*2*2*2*7

    put them in order from smallest to largest

    2*2*2*2*2*2*2*2*2 * 4*4*4*4 * 7*11

    you can put them in exponent form

    2^9*3^4*7*11
