Question 2

In power notation, 8116 can be expressed as ___.

A.

(3424)

B.

(34)3

C.

(32)4

D.

(32)3

SOLUTION

Solution : A and C

Question 3

Third power of 14× fourth power of 4 equals to ______.

A.

 42

B.

 43

C.

 4

D.

 40

SOLUTION

Solution : C

Third power of 14=(14)3
Fourth power of  4 is equal to 44.

(14)3×44
= 14×14×14×4×4×4×4
= 4×4×4×44×4×4
= 4443
= 4
