The exponent in a mathematical expression indicates how many times the base is multiplied by itself. For example, in the expression (a^n), (a) is the base and (n) is the exponent, meaning (a) is used as a factor (n) times. Thus, (a^n) can be expanded as (a \times a \times a \ldots) (repeated (n) times). Exponents provide a concise way to represent repeated multiplication.

The number that indicates how many times a factor is repeated is called the "exponent." In a mathematical expression, such as (a^n), (a) is the base and (n) is the exponent, which shows how many times the base (a) is multiplied by itself. For example, in (2^3), the factor 2 is repeated 3 times, resulting in (2 \times 2 \times 2 = 8).
