Question & Answer
How would you write 8∧5 as a multiplication expression?
1 Answer
Verified archiveThe correct answer is B. 8×8×8×8×8.
Explanation: The notation “8 ∧ 5” represents “8 raised to the power of 5,” which means multiplying the base number (8) by itself a total of 5 times. Therefore, it can be expressed as ( 8 times 8 times 8 times 8 times 8 ). Option A represents just one multiplication, while option C represents 5 raised to the power of 8, which is not what is asked.
