Question
Which one is greater $8^2$ or $2^8?$
✓
Answer
In order to find the greater number, we should find the value of both $2^8$ and $8^2$ To find the value of $2^8$ multiply $2 ,$ eight times
$2^8=2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2=256$
To find the vale of $8^2$ multiply $8 ,$ two times
$8^2=8 \times 8=64$
Since $256>64,2^8>8^2$
Hence $2^8$ is greater
