Exponents, also known as powers or indices, represent the number of times a base number is multiplied by itself. For example, in 2³, 2 is the base and 3 is the exponent, meaning 2 × 2 × 2.
Where 'base' is the number being multiplied, and 'n' is the exponent (the number of times the base is multiplied by itself).
A negative exponent represents the reciprocal of the positive power.
Any non-zero number raised to the zero power results in exactly 1.
