EXPONENTS: I’ve Got the Power! Exponential form is a way of writing repeated multiplication It looks like this: 3 2 and it represents 3 × 3 Base: is the number in exponential form that is being multiplied by itself Exponent: the number, in the exponential form, indicating how many times the base is multiplied by itself. Power: Another way to express exponential form “ 3 to the power of 2” is the same as 3 2
Expanded form : writing out the multiplication (showing a number multiplied by itself repeatedly) Ex: 5 × 5 × 5 × 5 is the expanded form of 5 4
