01 What should be checked first while comparing powers in prime factorisation?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. Powers of the same prime base
Explanation: Step 1: In prime factorisation, identify the bases first. Step 2: Powers of the same base are compared, such as power of 2 with power of 2 and power of 3 with power of 3. Step 3: In exams, do not compare powers directly when bases are different.
