Power of a number

8 to the 10th power is equivalent to multiply 8 by itself 10 times, i.e.:

8*8*8*8*8*8*8*8*8*8

It's usually written as:


8\cdot8\cdot8\cdot8\cdot8\cdot8\cdot8\cdot8\cdot8\cdot8=8^(10)

To manually multiply, it's recommended to use small groups like 8*8=64

Since there are 5 of such products:


8^(10)=64^5

Now we can multiply 64*64 = 4096. The product now is reduced to:


8^(10)=64^5=4096\cdot4096\cdot64

The final result is: 1,073,741,824
