Example Question #57 : Simple Exponents

Evaluate 

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

We can expand  as .

First multiply the first two integers:

From here multiply 49 with the remaining 7:

Multiply 7 by 9, leave the 3 in the ones place and carry the 6.

       

        

Now multiply 7 by 4 and add the remaining 6.

       

   

The product is .

Example Question #253 : Exponents

Evaluate 

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

We can expand  to .

First multiply the first two integers together.

     

Now multiply 81 by 9. First multiply the 9 by the one then the 9 by the 8:

    

From here multiply 729 by 9. 

Ones place:  Keep the one and carry the eight.

Tens place:  Keep the six and carry the two.

The hundredths place: 

Combining the values to solve for the product results in:

 .

Example Question #59 : Simple Exponents

Evaluate 

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

We can expand  to be . Remember when an even number of negative values are multiplied together the product becomes positive.

First multiply the first two integers:

Now multiply 36 by -6:

First multiply 6 by 6, then 3 by 6 plus the remainder.

Ones place: 

Tens place: 

Thus,

 

Now multiply -216 by -6.

Ones place: 

Tens place: 

Hundreds place: 

Combining these results in 

The product is then .

Example Question #254 : Exponents

Evaluate 

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

We can expand  to be . Remember the negative is outside the exponent.

First multiply the first two integers:

Now multiply 36 by 6:

First multiply 6 by 6, then 3 by 6 plus the remainder.

Ones place: 

Tens place: 

Thus,

     

Now multiply 216 by 6.

Ones place: 

Tens place: 

Hundreds place: 

Combining these results in 

Substituting this back into the  to be  the product is then .
