OpenStudy (anonymous):

That should be an 8

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think its 16 but I'm not sure dont wanna do it wron!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok so to expand it is to write it out, so what 2^8 is saying is take 2 and multiply it by itself 8 times

OpenStudy (anonymous):

when you are done multiplying, you will have your answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):

256

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It is raising 2 to the eighth power, not multiplying 2 * 8

OpenStudy (anonymous):
