Hopefully you have learned the secret about the 9 times tables where when u add the digits of the number together and they equal 9 (5+4=9) so you will know its divisible by 9 and the times table is 9*6=54
So now all u need to do is find the prime numbers of 9 and 6
9=3*3
6=3*2
So 2%2A3%2A3%2A3=54
Or 2%2A3%5E3=54
