Simplify the Expression: 8³ × 8 Using Exponent Rules

Question

Simplify the following equation:

$8^3\times8=$

00:00 Simplify the following problem

00:03 Any number raised to the power of 1 is always equal to itself

00:07 Let's insert this into our exercise

00:10 According to the laws of exponents, the multiplication of powers with an equal base (A)

00:13 equals the same base raised to the sum of the exponents (N+M)

00:16 We'll apply this formula to our exercise

00:19 We'll add up the exponents and raise them to this power

00:22 This is the solution

$8^{3+1}$
