The first step a math tutor would suggest 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:
93 x 93 x 93 x 93 x ... (for a total of 100 times) = 70517166842361671824292844527018841425339528183274971326857065600676676593429480696356843492087384540774638590378176247826316205630758999112717474635449646492161658916048732743023014989424382130001
Therefore, 93 to the power of 100 is 70517166842361671824292844527018841425339528183274971326857065600676676593429480696356843492087384540774638590378176247826316205630758999112717474635449646492161658916048732743023014989424382130001.
