Which of the following expressions is equal to \(7^2\cdot 7^3\)?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: \(7^5\)
When powers with the same base are multiplied, their exponents are added: \(7^2\cdot 7^3=7^{2+3}=7^5\). Therefore, option A is correct. Option B incorrectly gives the exponent as 6. Exam tip: in multiplication, keep the common base unchanged and add the exponents.
