Question

1. $(2^3)^2$

Explanation:

Step1: Apply exponent power rule

For $(a^m)^n = a^{m \times n}$, so $(2^3)^2 = 2^{3 \times 2}$

Step2: Calculate the exponent

$3 \times 2 = 6$, so we get $2^6$

Step3: Compute the final value

$2^6 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 = 64$

Answer:

64
