asked 10/20/14(6x6x6) 6 in exponential form
I need to know what you do with an exponent question that isn't just 6 x 6 x 6 x 6, which is 6 to the 4th power. But what do you do with (6 x 6 x 6) 6 ??

6x6x6=63, and (6x6x6)6 means 63x61 = 64.
Now, if you mean (6x6x6)6 then you have (63)6. The rule here says to multiply the exponents: 618.

Hello, Mathew from California
They are the same thing. For example: 2*3*4= 24 is the same as (2*3)*4= 6*4=24. so, (6*6*6)6= 6 to the fourth also. Just count how many times you are multiplying the base by itself.

(6 x 6 x 6)6 is equivalent to: 63*6 = 618
Damazo T.
Is that (6*6*6)^6 or (6*6*6)6 ????
