What is an index for? Where can you find it?

OpenStudy (sepeario):

The index of a number says how many times to use the number in a multiplication. It is written as a small number to the right and above the base number. In this example: \[8^2=8*8=64\] The plural of index is indices. (Other names for index are exponent or power.)
