To write 54 as a product of prime factors, let's first find the prime factorization of 54:

1. Divide 54 by the smallest prime number (2):
   \[
   54 \div 2 = 27
   \]
   So, 54 = 2 × 27.

2. Now, divide 27 by the smallest prime number that divides it (3):
   \[
   27 \div 3 = 9
   \]
   So, 27 = 3 × 9, and thus 54 = 2 × 3 × 9.

3. Continue factoring 9:
   \[
   9 = 3 \times 3
   \]
   So, 54 = 2 × 3 × 3 × 3.

Now, write the prime factors using exponents where applicable:
\[
54 = 2 \times 3^3
\]

In your homework interface, you can input \(2 \times 3^3\) as the answer.
