What is the value of (2^4 \times 2^2)?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: 64
When powers with the same base are multiplied, their exponents are added: \(2^4 \times 2^2 = 2^{4+2} = 2^6 = 64\). Therefore, 64 is correct. The value 32 equals \(2^5\), so it is not correct here. Exam tip: remember the rule \(a^m \times a^n = a^{m+n}\).
