Question

write an expression that is equivalent to $3^4$.
$3\cdot 3\cdot 3\cdot 3$
what is the value of $3^4$?
$3^4=\square$

Explanation:

Step1: Recall exponent definition

An exponent \(a^n\) means multiplying \(a\) by itself \(n\) times. For \(3^4\), \(a = 3\) and \(n = 4\), so it's \(3\times3\times3\times3\).

Step2: Calculate the product

First, \(3\times3 = 9\). Then, \(9\times3 = 27\). Finally, \(27\times3 = 81\).

Answer:

81
