Answer:

False

Explanation:

You want to know if it is true that 2⁵ is the same as 2·5.

Exponent

An exponent, such as the 5 in 2⁵ is an indicator of repeated multiplication. It indicates the product has 5 factors of 2:

2⁵ = 2·2·2·2·2

This is not the same as 2·5.

It is False that 2⁵ is the same as 2·5.

Additional comment

On this site, and perhaps elsewhere, you will sometimes see an exponent erroneously written adjacent to the base, (2)5, for example. If the 5 is intended as an exponent, that term should be written as 2^5. The expression (2)5 actually does mean 2·5. It is not the same as 2^5.
