What to Focus On

  • Base is the repeated factor.
  • Index or exponent shows the number of repeated factors.
  • The plural of index is indices.

  • Repeated multiplication can be written in compact exponent form.
  • Prime factorization is a useful method for writing numbers in exponential form.
  • A fraction can also be written using exponents.

  • Expand the power into repeated multiplication.
  • Evaluate powers before doing other operations.
  • Zero multiplied by any number is zero.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The exponent tells how many times the base is added.

The base is the exponent and the exponent is the base.

A negative base raised to an odd power is always positive because the exponent is odd.
