What is the value of (100^1)?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: 100
Any number raised to the power 1 remains the same: \(a^1=a\). Therefore, \(100^1=100\). The value 1000 would result from multiplying 100 by 10, not from raising it to the power 1. Exam tip: when the exponent is 1, write the base directly.
