Step-by-step explanation

An exponent is a quantity that represents the power to which a given number or expression is to be raised, usually expressed as a raised symbol beside the number or expression. It is also known as an index.

For example


\begin{gathered} \text{ 2}^3=(2*2*2);\text{ 3 represents the exponent} \\ \end{gathered}
