Exponents: What are they & how do they work?

Two people each had two children. Those children each had two children. Their children each had two children… This went on for 6 generations. How would we write that as a multiplication question?

# of People = 2(2)(2)(2)(2)(2)

3 of 15

Exponents: Six generations of two children.

Can we rewrite 2(2)(2)(2)(2)(2) simpler?

“Six multiples of two.”
