When a number is written in exponential form what is the number that is used as a factor?

When we multiply two or more numbers we call them factors, and the result a product. If we multiply the same number a several time, we call it a repeating multiplication, where the factor is the number itself. For example, 5*5*5*5*5*5.
In this multiplication the number 5 (or the factor 5) appears 6 times. We use the exponential form 56 as a short hand to represent this repeated multiplication of 5, and we call the factor 5 the base, and the number of its appearances in the multiplication, 6, the exponent.

What is the repeated factor of a number written in exponential form?
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

What is the difference between scientific notation and exponential form?
A number written in scientific form is written in the form #.##... x 10a (note exactly one number before the decimal place), where a is an integer, while a number in exponential form is written in the form bc where b is prime and c is an integer. See the following examples: * 1024 is written in scientific notation as 1.024 x 103, but in exponential form as 210. * 0.0016 is written in scientific notation as 1.6 x 10-3, but in exponential form as 5-4. * 3 is written in scientific notation as 3 x 100 and in exponential form as 31. Please, note, however, that some sources say exponential form is just another way of saying scientific notation.
