The repeated factor in an exponent is called the base. It is the number that is being multiplied by itself multiple times. For example, in the exponent 2^3, the base is 2.
Power.
Exponents can be used to simplify notation when the same factor is repeated
how can exponent can make it easier to write an expression with a repeated factor in the product
The number that is a repeated factor when written in the power operation is called the base
It is: 2*5*7 = 70 and no exponents are needed
