Question

Write an expression that equals 24. Include an exponent

Answer 1

There are many possibilities. Here are three:
5^2 - 1 = 24
2^4 + 4*2
3^3 - 3

Answer 2

2.4 × 10

Explanation:

To write a number using exponents we can use scientific notation. Scientific notation is a way to express numbers that are too big or too small and it has the following form:

m × 10ⁿ

where,

1 ≤ m < 10

n is an integer

n represents the distance between the decimal point in its current position and the position it has to take so that m fulfills its condition. Here, 24 is

2.4 × 10¹ = 2.4 × 10
