Select the correct answer.

How would you write [tex]$6 \times 6 \times 6 \times 6$[/tex] as an exponential expression?

A. [tex]$6^4$[/tex]
B. [tex]$6 \ \textgreater \ 4$[/tex]
C. 64



Answer :

To write [tex]\( 6 \times 6 \times 6 \times 6 \)[/tex] as an exponential expression, you need to recognize that repeated multiplication of the same number can be represented using exponents.

The base number in this multiplication is 6, and it is being multiplied by itself a total of 4 times. This can be expressed as:

[tex]\[ 6^4 \][/tex]

This means "6 raised to the power of 4" or "6 to the fourth power".

The correct representation among the given options is:

None of the given options correctly represent [tex]\( 6 \times 6 \times 6 \times 6 \)[/tex]. However, if there was an option for [tex]\( 6^4 \)[/tex], that would be the right choice.

Since none of the options (A, B, or C) correctly match this expression, it's important to note the correct exponential form is [tex]\( 6^4 \)[/tex].
