A number which is multiplied by itself once is said to be squared = 5 x 5 = 25, also written as 52. This is called a square because if the sides of a rectangle are the same, it is a square.

A number which is multiplied by itself twice is said to be cubed = 5 x 5 x 5 = 125, also written as 53. This is called a cube because if the sides of a three-dimensional object with a square base are all the same it is a cube.

A number multiplied by itself twice is called its cube. In mathematical terms, this is referred to as raising a number to the power of three. For example, if we have the number 2, multiplying it by itself twice would result in 2 x 2 x 2 = 8, which is the cube of 2.

Well, darling, that's called an exponentiation. You take a number, multiply it by itself once, and then multiply that result by the original number again. It's like math's way of saying, "Let's do this power trip together."
