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.

Base of a power
In a power expression, you have two numbers.The number written normally (to the left) is called the BASE. That's what tells you what factor you should multiply by itself. The small raised number (to the right) tells you how often the factor is used. It's called the EXPONENT.

A literal factor is a factor in an algebraic expression that consists of a single variable or a combination of variables raised to a positive integer power. For example, in the expression 3xy^2, the literal factors are x and y.
eithth to the eighth power is 376
9 to the eighth power = 43046721

3 dB is a change in power by a factor of 2. If it is plus, i.e. +3dB, power is doubled. If it is minus, i.e. -3dB, power is halved. 6 dB, then is a factor of four, or quarter; 6 dB is a factor of eight, or eighth, etc. The actual equation is 3 log2 (POWER OUT / POWER IN).
