Solution: 14 to the Power of 11 is equal to 4049565169664
Methods
Step-by-step: finding 14 to the power of 11
The first step is to understand what it means when a number has an exponent. The “power” of a number indicates how many times the base would be multiplied by itself to reach the correct value.
The second step is to write the number in the base-exponent form, and lastly calculate what the final result would be. Consider the example of 2 to the power of 4: in exponent form that would be
2
4
2^4
2 4
. To solve this, we need to multiply the base, 2 by itself, 4 times -
2
⋅
2
⋅
2
⋅
2
2\cdot2\cdot2\cdot2
2 ⋅ 2 ⋅ 2 ⋅ 2
= 16. So
2
4
=
16
2^4 = 16
2 4 = 16
.
So re-applying these steps to our particular problem, we first convert our word problem to a base-exponent form of:
1
4
11
14^{11}
1 4 11
To simplify this, all that is needed is to multiply it out:
14 x 14 x 14 x 14 x ... (for a total of 11 times) = 4049565169664
Therefore, 14 to the power of 11 is 4049565169664.
