MATHS - Powers (Indices)

Learning Intention:I can explain what different indices mean.Success Criteria:I have solved different equations using indices.Learning Resources Required:Exercise book, pencils, and iphone/tablet/computer.Learning Task:

Index notation is a shortened way of expressing how many times a number needs to bemultiplied by itself. It is used especially frequently in computer science.

Index notation is also commonly referred to as ‘squared’ or ‘to the power of’.The index notation refers specifically to the indice. That’s the small number on the top right thattells you how many times a number should be multiplied. The number expressed in the indicetells you how many times you should see the number in your equation.

You can see above that 5 with an index of 3 means that there needs to be 3 different 5s in yourequation. 5 x 5 = 25. 25 x 5 = 125. Therefore, 5 to the power of 3 = 125.

Five to the power of 2 or more commonly referred to as 5 squared denotes 2 5’s in the equation.

Solve the following indice equations, ensure that you show your working out as well as I havebelow:66 = 6 x 6 x 6 x 6 x 6 x 6 =

1. 6 = 62. 6 x 6 = 363. 36 x 6 = 2164. 216 x 6 = 12965. 1296 x 6 = 7,7766. 7,716 x 6 = 46,656

Therefore 6 to the power of 6 = 46,656
