Homework Statement
Find the prime factorization of the integers ## 1234, 10140 ##, and ## 36000 ##.
Relevant Equations
None.
## 1234=2\cdot 617 ##
## 10140=2\cdot 2\cdot 3\cdot 5\cdot 13\cdot 13 ##
## 36000=2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot 3\cdot 3\cdot 5\cdot 5\cdot 5\cdot ##

Are the answers above correct? Or do I need to put them in canonical form as below?

## 1234=2\cdot 617 ##
## 10140=2^{2}\cdot 3\cdot 5\cdot 13^{2} ##
## 36000=2^{5}\cdot 3^{2}\cdot 5^{3} ##
