What is the base in two over three
all raised to the fourth power?
In this question, we are given a
fraction raised to an exponent and asked to determine which part of the expression
is the base. We can do this by recalling that in
an expression of the form 𝑏 to the 𝑛th power, 𝑏 is the base of the exponent and
𝑛 is called the power or exponent.
In our case, we can see that we
have two-thirds all raised to the fourth power. So, the value of 𝑏 is two-thirds
and the value of 𝑛 is four. This means that the base of the
expression is two-thirds and the exponent is four.
