2n^2(8)^3 Please Help!!!

Question

Simplify. Express using exponents.

Answer 1

With instructions to use exponents, I would do it this way:

2n²(8)³  = 2(2³)³ n² = 2(2⁹) n² = 2¹⁰ n²

This is exactly the same as Tamara's answer above, but with an explicit powr of 2.

Answer 2

     2n²(8)³      ==>      2n² · 8³

  8³ = 8 · 8 · 8 = 512

    2n² · 8³ = 2n² · 512 = (512 · 2)n² = 1024n²
