this module is intended to help you understand fractional exponents. rewrite the expression below as 16 to a single power: \\((16^{8})^{4}=\\square\\)
Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Apply exponent power rule
Recall the rule: $(a^m)^n = a^{m \times n}$ For $(16^8)^4$, set $a=16$, $m=8$, $n=4$.
Step2: Calculate the new exponent
$8 \times 4 = 32$ Substitute back to get $16^{32}$.
Answer:
$16^{32}$
