How can you use the prime factorization of the powers of ten to find the prime factorization of 270,000?

Prime factorization is the process of finding the factors of a number and these factors must be of prime numbers.

27000 = 27 × 10000
27000 = 27 × 10⁴
27000 = 3 × 9 × 10⁴ [Here we have 3 as a prime number, but not '9' and '10', so we will keep breaking this down]
27000 = 3 ×3 × 3 × (2 × 5) ⁴ [Here we have all prime numbers]
27000 = 3³ × 2⁴ × 5⁴
