An exponent :)
It could mean the base of a number system, such as decimal is base-10, or binary is base-2, or hexidecimal is base-16. Or it can refer to when a number has an exponent, like 23, 2 is the base, and 3 is the exponent. Or ex, where e represents the base of the natural logarithm. Here is another word 'base'. This is related to the base/exponent meaning.Another meaning for base is in solid geometry, such as a cylinder has a base (the circle part).
I assume you are asking for the exponent when 60 is raised to a power. Since 60 is a composite number, there is no specific exponent that corresponds to it. The exponent depends on the specific equation or problem you are working on.
If you have ab then a is the base and b the exponent
10x 10 is Base & x is exponent
