1. EXPONENTS 4 3 means… -4 to the power of 3 -4 multiplied by itself 3 times -4 x 4 x 4 -= 64

2. EXPONENTS 5252 -5 to the power of 2 -5 x 5 = 25 2525 -2 to the power of 5 -2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 32

3. POWERS OF 10 8 452 631 212 Each number can be broken down to its place value… -8 000 000 000 (8 billion – billions place value) -400 000 000 (400 million – hundred millions) -50 000 000 (50 million – ten millilons) -2 000 000 (2 million - millions) -600 000 (600 thousand – hundred thousands) -30 000 (30 thousand – ten thousands) -1 000 (1 thousand - thousands) -200 (2 hundred – hundreds) -10 (ten – tens) -2 (two – units)

4. POWERS OF 10 2.349128 Decimals can be broken down the same way… -2 (two – units) -0.3 (3 tenths – tenths column) -0.04 (4 hundredths – hundredths) -0.009 (9 thousandths – thousandths) -0.0001 (1 ten thousandth) -0.00002 (2 hundred thousandths) -0.000008 (8 millionths) -… and so on…

5. POWERS OF 10 Powers of 10 can also be written like this… -100 = 10 2 -1 000 = 10 3 -10 000 = 10 4 -100 000 = 10 5 -Notice that the exponent after the 10 represents the number of zeros in the expanded form.

6. POWERS OF 10 400 000 can also be written as… 4 x 10 5 -expanded, it would look like… -4 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 -= 400 000
