We are asked to evaluate the exponent below
![5^2](https://img.qammunity.org/2023/formulas/mathematics/college/ydq4m5aty8q5qgepxcgyl7kpv5xf7arzx6.png)
An exponent is a number or letter written above and to the right of a mathematical expression called the base. It indicates that the base is to be raised to a certain power. In the case above "5" is the base and "2" is the exponent or power.
All you have to do is multiply the base a number of times using the value of the exponent.
Ok Thanks
The solution would imply;
