What is the value of (8^3)?
Advertisement
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: 512
An exponent of 3 means that 8 is multiplied by itself three times: \(8^3=8\times8\times8=64\times8=512\). Therefore, 512 is correct. The close distractor 64 is the value of \(8^2\), not \(8^3\). Exam tip: in \(a^n\), n tells how many times a is used as a factor.
