The first step is to understand what it means when a number has an exponent. The “power” of a number indicates how many times the base would be multiplied by itself to reach the correct value.
The second step is to write the number in the base-exponent form, and lastly calculate what the final result would be. Consider the example of 2 to the power of 4: in exponent form that would be
So re-applying these steps to our particular problem, we first convert our word problem to a base-exponent form of:
To simplify this, all that is needed is to multiply it out:
24 x 24 x 24 x 24 x ... (for a total of 92 times) = 9537493115364456355011238659249761759589410094552593904515822398249586658649193799482808396366391423152306043220049385620504576
Therefore, 24 to the power of 92 is 9537493115364456355011238659249761759589410094552593904515822398249586658649193799482808396366391423152306043220049385620504576.
