Definition 1. Power with natural exponent is number defined in following way: power to in denote we calculate
using following rules:
1 = , +1 = , 0 = 1 ( 0 , )
Basic properties:
1) = +
2) ( ) =
3) = ( )

Example 1. Calculate: a) (3) b) (22 )3 c) 43 47 d) 56 : 52
2 3 23 8
Solution: a) (3) = 33 = 27 b) (22 )3 = 223 = 26 = 64 c) 43 47 = 43+7 = 410 = 1048576
d) 56 : 52 = 562 = 54 = 625
Example 2. Compare numbers 230 and 320 . Which one is greater from the other?
230 = 2310 = (23 )10 = 810 320 = 3210 = (32 )10 = 910
