Question

Write the number 125 using an exponent and the base 5.

Answer 1

Answer:
`5^(3)`

Explanation:

An exponent is a quantity representing the power to which a given number or expression is to be raised, usually expressed as a raised symbol beside the number or expression (e.g. 3 in
`2^(3)` = 2 × 2 × 2).

Answer 2

To write the number 125 using the base 5, we should write it like this:

`\sf{5^x}`

where x is the exponent.

`\sf{5^x=125}`

Well, we know that 5³ = 125.

So, 125 written as a number with a base of 5 is: 5³.

Answer:

5³
