Question: write an expression using an exponent that is equivalent to 8x8x8x8?
Answer: The base B represents the number you multiply and the exponent "x" tells you how many times you multiply the base, and you write it as "B^ x." For example, 8^3 is 8X8X8=512 where "8" is the base, "3" is the exponent and the whole expression is the power.
