Answer:

56 times

Explanation:

An exponent are 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 23 = 2 × 2 × 2).

56 times!!

This is because the exponent indicates how many times you multiply a number. For example:
5^2= 5x5
