Answers:

  • 2^3 = 8
  • 3^2 = 9
  • 3^3 = 27
  • 4^3 = 64
  • 5^2 = 25
  • 8^2 = 64

==============================================

Step-by-step explanation:

The notation 5^2 is the same as writing
5^2

The second number is the exponent and it tells us how many copies of the base to multiply together. In the example 5^2, we have two copies of 5 multiplied to get 5^2 = 5*5 = 25

As another example, 4^3 = 4*4*4 = 64. We have three copies of 4 multiplied due to the exponent 3. You can use a calculator for this, but I recommend doing this by hand to get practice.

Note how 4^3 = 64 and 8^2 = 64. So 64 is used twice (which is why we have two tiles labeled "64").

The tiles labeled 9, 12, 10, and 16 are never used since they don't have any matching exponential expression.
