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 70 times) = 622022935921842423596485400495558379849340264986912213730004621238097813650096782151790513140892178880990954288302079343159944050451540249
Therefore, 93 to the power of 70 is 622022935921842423596485400495558379849340264986912213730004621238097813650096782151790513140892178880990954288302079343159944050451540249.
