We are asked to evaluate the exponent below


5^2

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;


5^2=5*5=25

Therefore, the answer is;

Answer:


25
