Exponents Thus far in the text we have learned to add, subtract, multiply, and divide whole numbers. We now present the concept of an exponent to represent repeated multiplication. For example, the product exponent 3 3 3 3 3 can be written as 35 base of Operations Concepts 1. Exponents 2. Square Roots 3. Order of Operations 4. Computing a Mean (Average) The expression is written in exponential form. The exponent, or power, is 5 and represents the number of times the base, 3, is used as a factor.The expression 35 is read as “three to the fifth power.” Other expressions in exponential form are shown next. 35
