The number that is a repeated factor when written in the power operation is called the base
proportion
A repeated factor, f, of a number, n, written in exponential form denotes how many times n divides f. If n divides f t times, then f^t is a factor of n. Ex. The number 192 has a prime factorization 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3 which can be written as 2^6, 3 where (2^6)(3) = 192

An exponent :)
The factors of nine are one, three, and nine. A factor is a whole number that when multiplied by another number equals the number you are factoring. So, the repeated multiplication for nine is 3 times 3.
The exponent tells how many times the base is repeated as a factor.
The base is the repeated factor. The exponent tells how many times the base is repeated.
