Example B
110
Example C
150

Rightioo, if I get this wrong, don't shoot me. I did it a while back so uhm, lets go with 100.
We do this diagram thing so its like;

100
25 4
5 5 2 2

Now circle both the 5's and the 2's cus they're prime numbers.
Then you get something like [ I THINK ] 5 [ squared] x 2 [squared]

Hope this helps.
The diagram bit is 100% right, the second bit may be bit iffy. But I'm sure its right

I did that a few weeks ago!
Our teacher was using a whole different complicated method and we all just shouted out can't we do the cherry tree method!
She didnt have a clue what it was, but we all managed to understand it better that way.

We were also taught some other way, but it wasn't that great so I paid no attention ;D

Ugh, if only I could go back to the simpler stuff like that now.

Quadratic formulae and simultaneos quadratic equations are what it's all about now.

And by the way, ² is ALT + 0178 and ³ is ALT + 0179 (make sure you have Num Lock on :p).
