First, here is an example we are going to work with:
43 X 3
First, we are going to follow the rules of PEMDAS(Parenthases Exponents Multiplication Division Addition Subtraction). PEMDAS states that we must do the exponents first before multiplication.
With that said, the number of the exponent is the base number times itself the number of times the exponent is. So, 43 will be 4 X 4 X 4, which is 64.
Now, we just do simple multiplication. 64 X 3 = 192. That is your answer.
The base number of an exponant is the number that you are multiplying by. For example, 5 to the power of 2. multiply 5 by itself 2 times.
It is the exponent and tells you how many times the base is to be multiplied.
If you have ab then a is the base and b the exponent
No, an exponent is not called a base number. the base is the number before the exponent: 34. 3 is the base, 4 is the exponent the expont could also be refered to as three to the fourth power
A base number is the value to the power of the exponent. For example, in 2^4, 2 is the base number and 4 is the exponent.
The exponent.
the exponent
Exponent
If you are referring to the number 125 itself, then 125 is the base, and 1 is the exponent. This would be written as 1251. This number can also be written as 53, as 5 cubed also equals 125. In this case, 5 is the base, and 3 is the exponent. The main integer value is the base, the number to the upper right of it is the exponent. The exponent tells you how many times to multiply the base number by itself to find the answer.
Base and exponent are the two parts of a power. The base is the lower left, normal-sized, number. The exponent is the upper-right, small (i.e., superscript) number. For example, in: 34 3 is the base, 4 is the exponent. In the simplest case, a power specifies a repeated multiplication. The base tells you what number to multiply by itself, the exponent tells you how many times to multiply it. Thus, 34 = 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 (that is, multiply 3 by itself, using the number 4 times as a factor)
The base number of an exponant is the number that you are multiplying by. For example, 5 to the power of 2. multiply 5 by itself 2 times.
The base of an exponent is the main number. For example in 56 the number 5 is the base and 6 is the exponent.
The exponent shows how many times the base is used as a factor.
It is the exponent and tells you how many times the base is to be multiplied.
To multiply it as for example: 83 means 8*8*8 = 512
If you have ab then a is the base and b the exponent
You multiply the base number by itself as many times as the exponent tells you. Example 4^4 =4•4•4•4= 256
