Imagine that you designed a firework. When the firework first explodes, it splits into eight sparkles. Each of those sparkles then explodes and splits into eight new sparkles.

How many sparkles would the second explosion produce? Explain how you determined your answer.

Answer 1

1 sparkle Burst it produces 8 sparkles so you say 8×8×8×8×8×8×8×8

Answer 2

8 x 8 = 64

Explanation:

Just including the second explosion, each of the 8 sparks bursts into 8, that means 8 sparks were produced 8 times, or 8x8
