A base is a number in a term that has an exponent on it. e.g. x^2: x is the base log2(8) 2 is the base
The base is the repeated factor, the exponent is the number of times by which the base is mutltiplied by itself. The exponent is also known as the power, althought the product of the exponential expression can also be described as the power.
the base and the laws of exponent
In 2 to the fifth power (25), the 2 is called the base and the 5 is called the exponent. This expression equals 2*2*2*2*2 = 32.
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 base is the large number, and is the number being multiplied; the exponent is the smaller number on the upper right, which says how many times the base is multiplied. 23 says that 2 is multiplied 3 times, so: 2 X 2 X 2. In this case, the base is 2, and the exponent is 3.
An exponent is the power that a number is raised to. For instance, in the expression 3^2 ("three squared"), 2 is the "exponent" and 3 is the "base." A positive exponent just means that the power is a positive number. For instance, the following expression does not involve a positive exponent: 3^(-2). Horses rule!!!!!

An exponential expression is a problem with no answer usually used to answer a question such as, Find the Value ; 2 as a base and 5 as an exponent.; The answer would be 32 because to find the value of an exponent you multiply the number in the base by itself as many times that it says in the exponent.Ex: 2*2*2*2*2=32
4 is the base, 2 is the exponent.
The base is the repeated factor, the exponent is the number of times by which the base is mutltiplied by itself. The exponent is also known as the power, althought the product of the exponential expression can also be described as the power.
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
the base and the laws of exponent
The base could be 11 and the exponent 2, giving 112 But, it could equally be base = 14641, and exponent = 0.5, or base = 10, and exponent = 2.082785 (approx)
In 2 to the fifth power (25), the 2 is called the base and the 5 is called the exponent. This expression equals 2*2*2*2*2 = 32.
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 power could then be called an exponent. The number that is being raised to a power is called the base. In the case of 42, the exponent is 2 and the base is 4.
