An exponent.
The exponent tells that.
The exponent
An exponent.
It is the exponent and tells you how many times the base is to be multiplied.
Multiplier. Multiplicand times multiplier equals product.
The multiplier. The multiplicand is multiplied by the multiplier to create the product.
In the expression (5x), the number 5 is a coefficient. It indicates how many times the variable (x) is multiplied. Essentially, it tells us that (x) is being scaled or multiplied by 5.

The number of times a base number is multiplied by itself is referred to as an exponent. For example, in the expression (a^n), (a) is the base number, and (n) indicates how many times (a) is multiplied by itself. If (n) equals 3, then (a) is multiplied by itself two additional times (e.g., (a \times a \times a)).
The base in the expression (5^3) indicates the number that is being multiplied by itself. In this case, the base is 5, which means that 5 will be multiplied together three times: (5 \times 5 \times 5). The exponent, which is 3, tells us how many times to use the base in the multiplication. Thus, (5^3) equals 125.
