Stella · Answer 1

240 = 2 * 120

120 = 2 * 60

60 = 2 * 30

30 = 2 * 15

15 = 3 * 5

The 2, 2, 2, 2, 3 and 5 are all the prime factors of 240. So, 2^4 * 3 * 5

1500 = 3 * 500

500 = 5 * 100

100 = 5 * 20

20 = 5 * 4

4 = 2 * 2

The 3, 5, 5, 5, 2 and 2 are all the prime factors of 1500. So, 2² + 3 + 5³
