Which of the following is equal to \\(5^4\\)?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: \\(5\\cdot5\\cdot5\\cdot5\\)
In \\(5^4\\), 5 is the base and 4 is the exponent. It means multiplying 5 by itself four times: \\(5\\cdot5\\cdot5\\cdot5\\)。 Therefore, option C is correct. Option B shows ordinary multiplication of 5 and 4, not the meaning of an exponent. Exam tip: Expand \\(a^n\\) as a product of n factors, each equal to \\(a\\).
