The exponent is an unknown variable. It is a variable because it will change into a known number when we get further into the equation.
Take this for example.
4x=8 - where x is the exponent.
To work out the problem we simply move the 4 over the equal's sign. Since it is 4x, this means that it is 4 times x. Since we are moving the 4 over the equals sign, we have to change the multiplication, into a division.
x=8/4 which equals 2. The x is a 2.
To check, we we substitute the 2 with the x in the equation. 4x2=8, which is correct.

Do you express scientific notation?
Scientific Notation is expressed by using a number, using an exponent as a number (usually a decimal) multiplied by a 10, and an exponent (the number on the exponent is the number of zeros the number has).Example: 120,000,000 in scientific notation is 1.2 X 107
