A number does not have an exponent in isolation. It has an exponent in the context of a base. The same number can have different combinations of base and exponent. A base cannot be zero but usually it is restricted to positive real numbers. In higher mathematics, the most common base is the irrational (even transcendental) number e = 2.71828...Thus 216 = 216^1 or 10^2.3345 or e^5.3753 or 6^3 or 36^1.5 and so on.
169 = 132
Exponential form
base is a number used as the factor in exponential form.
A number is in exponential form when it is written with a base and an exponent.
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 standard form is 216 Exponent form is 2.16 x 102
the answer is 6 cubed
The form in which you have a base with an exponent.
The base and exponent form a pair. You can chose any positive base and that will determine the exponent.243 = 49^1.5 that is base = 49, exponent = 1.5)or 243 = 10^2.5353 (approx) or 243 = 7^3.

3 to power of 6= 216 , 3 to power of 9= 729
A number in exponential form.
it is called an exponential form
The two are related. The answer could be base 2, exponent 18 or base 8, exponent 6 or base 10, exponent 5.4185 or base 262144, exponent 1 or base 68,719,476,736 and exponent 0.5
