An exponent is something that raises a number or a variable to a power. It is a process of repeated multiplication. For example, the expression means to multiply 2 times itself 3 times or. In, the 2 is called the base and the 3 is called the exponent. Both the base and the exponent can be either a number or a variable. Each of the following is an example of an exponential expression. When both the base and the exponent are numbers, we can evaluate the expression as we did with.
The exponent of a number says how many times to use the number in a multiplication. In 82 the 2 says to use 8 twice in a multiplication, so 82 = 8 Ã 8 = 64. In words: 82 could be called 8 to the power 2 or 8 to the second power, or simply 8 squared. Exponents are also called Powers or Indices. Some more examples: In words: 53 could be called 5 to the third power, 5 to the power 3 or simply 5 cubed.
