Exponents

     Have you ever seen exponents before? If so, when ? What do you know about exponents? I know that exponents mean to multiply. So if you had 5 to the 2nd power, you would do 5 x 5  which equals 25. Lots of people misunderstand and they would multiply 5 x 2 and get ten. That's how you would get it wrong. Exponents means to multiply the number times itself how many times it says. If it was 2 with a little 6 by it, you would multiply 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2. Not just 2 x 6.
    You would multiply 2 x 2 and get 4 and drop all the other twos.
4 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2.
