SOLUTION: if n=13^8*17^10, then the prime factorization of 26*n is______.
This is what I have so far, its not much, but I can't go further because I don't understand :( Please help!
26
26*138*1710
That's the correct way to start.
Now break the 26 into prime factors as 2*13
and replace the 26 by 2*13
2*13*138*1710
and then since 13*138 = 139, we end up with
2*139*1710
