multiplying a number by itself is a power 2^2=2 to the 2nd power 2^3=2 to the 3rd power
Multiplication
When you multiple 17 by 3, you get 51. That is add 17 to itself for 3 times.
To find the number that you can multiply by itself three times to get 512, you need to calculate the cube root of 512. The cube root of 512 is 8, since (8 \times 8 \times 8 = 512). Therefore, the number is 8.
No, you multiply it by itself, eg 62 = 36
multiplying a number by itself is a power 2^2=2 to the 2nd power 2^3=2 to the 3rd power
You multiply the number by itself 115 times.
the exponent
Multiplication
An exponent is used to indicate that a number is multiplied by itself a specified number of times. For example, to multiply 4 by itself 9 times, you would write 49.
When you multiple 17 by 3, you get 51. That is add 17 to itself for 3 times.
To square a number you multiply it by itself, to cube a number you then multiply itself twice! i.e. 3 times 3 is 9 and 9 times 3 is then 27 so 27 is 3 cubed
it means to multiply the number by it self
To find the number that you can multiply by itself three times to get 512, you need to calculate the cube root of 512. The cube root of 512 is 8, since (8 \times 8 \times 8 = 512). Therefore, the number is 8.
No, you multiply it by itself, eg 62 = 36
You take a number and multiply it by itself three times.
A number "to the power" of another number means to multiply the first number by itself however many times the second number is. Example: 43, 4 to the power of 3, means multiply 4 by itself 3 times: 4x4x4=64
