PRACTICE WORKSHEET

Exponents and Powers


Points to Remember:
The exponents tells us that how many times the number should be multiplied. It is called the
Exponential form. This is written like this:

Here 10 is the base and 9 is the exponent and this complete number is the power. We pronounce it as
10 raised to the power 9. The exponent could be positive or negative.
This tells us that the number 10 will be multiplied 9 times, like, 10 × 10 × 10 × 10 × 10 × 10 × 10 × 10
× 10
Laws of Exponents
If we have a and b as the base and m and n as the exponents, then
