Why are exponents used in mathematics? Please help!! 10 points!!

Answer 1

Hi There!

Exponents are used in math so its easier to multiply. For example if you have to do 8 * 8 * 8 * 8 * 8 * 8 * 8 * 8, then to make it easier to multiply you could change into the exponent form
`8^(8)` that is what exponents are used for in math

Hope This Helps :)
