(16n^8)^3/2

the exponent
you get an exponent when you multiply EXAMPLE 10x10x10=1000 that is an exponent NO DONT THINK THAT IF THE EXPONENT IS 3 YOU MULTIPLY IT BY 3 NO WAY JOSE
its shows how many times you multiply a number to its self.. if you got 2 exponent 5..it means you have to multiply 2, 5 times to itself.. 2x2x2x2x2=32
it means that you multiply that number by it's self as many times as the exponent says ex: 6 7 is 6x6x6x6x6x6x6=279936
You multiply the whole number as many times as the exponent is.
Because a number to the exponent 0 = 1 and any lesser exponent decreases the value.
Why not? An exponent is just like any other number.
Exponent
Yes the exponent is the number of times you multiply it so for example twenty with a zero exponent is zero
Example: (4x)-2 The answer to this would be 1/ 16x2. Multiply it out as if the negative exponent was not there ((4x)2), then that will be the denominator of the fraction. The numerator is one.
The exponent.
first you answer the exponet part. then after you get your exponet answer you multiply it with the other number. and that's how you multiply exponent's
One-thousandth, 1 x 10-3
The number its placed upon
It means that it is an exponent, and that it is not a rational number - i.e., one that can be written as a fraction of two integers.
To bring down the power of a number, you can apply the laws of exponents. For instance, to reduce a power, you can either multiply by a fraction with the same base but a lower exponent or divide by the base raised to the higher exponent. Alternatively, you can also take the root of the number, which is equivalent to raising it to a fraction. For example, (x^{a/b}) represents the b-th root of (x^a).
