To express 120 as a product of prime numbers with exponents, we can perform prime factorization. Here's how it's broken down:
120 = 2 × 60
= 2 × 2 × 30
= 2 × 2 × 3 × 10
= 2 × 2 × 3 × 2 × 5
= 2^3 × 3 × 5
Here, we have three 2s, one 3, and one 5.
As a product of prime numbers with exponents, 120 is expressed as:
2^3 × 3 × 5
So, from the choices provided, the correct expression is:
2 cubed times 3 times 5
