Powers and Exponents
(Honor’s Pre-Algebra)
Write each expression using
exponents.
1.) 6 ∙ 6 ∙ 6 ∙ 6 ∙ 6
5³
Powers and Exponents
Exponent: This tells you how
many times to multiply the
base.
Base: This is the number that gets
Multiplied.
Evaluate: To solve or find the value.
Factors: Number you multiply to
find a product.
2.) 5 ∙ 5 ∙ g ∙ g ∙ g ∙ g
Power: The number that can be
expressed using the exponent.
Steps:
Evaluate each expression.
1.) 8²
2.) (-3)³
3.) 4³ ∙ 3¹
Write using exponents.
Write down each different factor listed
in the group.
Give an exponent value related to how
many times each individual factor appears.
“Squish” all the bases/exponents together
to show multiplication.
Find the value of each exponent:
Write the base the number of times the
exponent states.
Multiply all of the bases to find the value.
Evaluating each expression.
Follow the order of operations.
Solve all math found within the parentheses.
Then find the value of each exponent.
Multiply/divide and add/subtract as directed.
Evaluate each expression
if a = 2, b = -3, and c = 5.
1.) 2b + c²
2.) b4
3.) 2(3c + 7)2
