What is Base to Power?

Raising a base to a power, also known as exponentiation, is a mathematical operation that involves multiplying a number (the base) by itself a certain number of times (the exponent). For example, raising 2 to the power of 3 (written as \(2^3\)) means multiplying 2 by itself three times: \(2 \times 2 \times 2 = 8\). This operation is fundamental in various fields of mathematics and science, including algebra, calculus, and physics. Exponentiation is used to describe exponential growth, compound interest, and many other phenomena.

Example Calculations

Example 1:

Using the formula:

\[ R = 2^3 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 = 8 \]

Example 2:

Using the formula:

\[ R = 5^4 = 5 \times 5 \times 5 \times 5 = 625 \]
