what′s the exponent of 12 in the  expansion of 100!

$$\boldsymbol{\mathrm{what}}'\boldsymbol{\mathrm{s}}\:\boldsymbol{\mathrm{the}}\:\boldsymbol{\mathrm{exponent}}\:\boldsymbol{\mathrm{of}}\:\mathrm{12}\:\boldsymbol{\mathrm{in}}\:\boldsymbol{\mathrm{the}} \\ $$$$\boldsymbol{\mathrm{expansion}}\:\boldsymbol{\mathrm{of}}\:\mathrm{100}! \\ $$

12=2^2 ×3  ⌊((100)/2)⌋+⌊((100)/2^2 )⌋+⌊((100)/2^3 )⌋+...  =50+25+12+6+3+1=97  ⌊((100)/3)⌋+⌊((100)/3^2 )⌋+⌊((100)/3^3 )⌋+...  =33+11+3+1=48  ⇒100!=2^(97) ×3^(48) ×...=2×(2^2 ×3)^(48) ×...  =12^(48) ×...

$$\mathrm{12}=\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{2}} ×\mathrm{3} \\ $$$$\lfloor\frac{\mathrm{100}}{\mathrm{2}}\rfloor+\lfloor\frac{\mathrm{100}}{\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{2}} }\rfloor+\lfloor\frac{\mathrm{100}}{\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{3}} }\rfloor+... \\ $$$$=\mathrm{50}+\mathrm{25}+\mathrm{12}+\mathrm{6}+\mathrm{3}+\mathrm{1}=\mathrm{97} \\ $$$$\lfloor\frac{\mathrm{100}}{\mathrm{3}}\rfloor+\lfloor\frac{\mathrm{100}}{\mathrm{3}^{\mathrm{2}} }\rfloor+\lfloor\frac{\mathrm{100}}{\mathrm{3}^{\mathrm{3}} }\rfloor+... \\ $$$$=\mathrm{33}+\mathrm{11}+\mathrm{3}+\mathrm{1}=\mathrm{48} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\mathrm{100}!=\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{97}} ×\mathrm{3}^{\mathrm{48}} ×...=\mathrm{2}×\left(\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{2}} ×\mathrm{3}\right)^{\mathrm{48}} ×... \\ $$$$=\mathrm{12}^{\mathrm{48}} ×... \\ $$
