What is an exponent?
An exponent tells how many times a number (the base) is multiplied by itself. For example, 23 = 2 × 2 × 2 = 8.
Can exponents be negative or decimals?
Yes. Negative exponents indicate reciprocals (e.g., 2-2 = 1/4), and decimal exponents relate to roots (e.g., 90.5 = √9 = 3).
What is any number raised to the power of 0?
Any non-zero number raised to the power of 0 is always 1.
