You take the original number and multiply itself by however many the exponent is. Example: 8 exponent 3, you would multiply 8 by itself three times. 8*8*8.

What is A to the third power times A to the third power?

Follow the law of exponents to get your answer. With the same base, add the exponents. You could just work it out: A^3 = A*A*A, so (A^3)*(A^3) = A*A*A * A*A*A = A^6 {A to the 6th power}


Where and how did exponents originate?

Exponents originated in ancient mathematics, with their roots traceable to the work of Babylonian and Egyptian mathematicians who used primitive forms of multiplication. The formal notation for exponents emerged in the 16th century, primarily through the work of European mathematicians like Michael Stifel and later René Descartes. They began using exponents to denote repeated multiplication, allowing for more concise mathematical expressions. This notation laid the groundwork for modern algebra and exponential functions as we know them today.
