Exponential Notation
Let’s start!
What’s In
What is a pattern?
A pattern is a repeated form of a group of numbers, shapes, or objects that follow
a rule while repeating or changing. It’s something that happens in a repeated way.
Very Good!
I have here different sets of numbers and figures. All you need to do is to give and
find the missing term in the pattern.

What’s New
In this portion you will learn, describe, and identify what are exponential
notation and its part. It will surely help you! So, just sit back, relax, and enjoy our
new topic!
I have here the first 3 questions for you and your family before we proceed to our
lesson.
I hope that your answers to the questions above are all YES!
As a child, you should always follow the rules set by your parents, these
rules are for your safety. We could help our doctors, nurses, health workers and
the other front liners if we choose to stay at home. So, if you want to help them,
just stay at home, and enjoy this precious time bonding with your family. Staying
at home will help to prevent the spread of the virus.
Going back...
Try to read and understand the problem below with one of your family members.

What is It
As a child, what do you think is the best way to do to stop or to lessen the spread
of the virus?
After analyzing the given problem, let’s try to solve the problem.
2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 16
To answer the second question we need to do the same procedure, multiply the 2
individuals, 7 times.
2×2×2×2×2×2×2
It is too long, right? To write it easily or to make it short and simple, the
exponential notation will help us.

There are 2 parts of exponential notation . . .
𝟐6
In the expression 26 , the number 2 is called the base and the number 6 is
called the exponent.
The exponent tells how many times the base is used as a factor (or the
number of times it is multiplied by itself).
The base is the number used as a factor (or the number multiplied by itself).
Therefore,
4 × 4 × 4 × 4 × 4 × 4 = 46

Reading exponential notation
More Examples . . .
Reminders:
If the exponent is “to the second power” you can also read or write it as “squared
If the exponent is “to the third power” you can also read or write it as “cubed”.

Lesson Giving the value of numbers
2 expressed in Exponential
Notation
In giving the value of numbers expressed in Exponential Notation you always need
first to identify what is the base and the exponent, then the base is multiplied by
itself to the number of times the exponent says. In this lesson, you will be able to
give the value of numbers expressed in exponential notation. It will also help you to
develop your skills in finding the value of it. It has a lot of activities that can
improve your learning capabilities.
Let”s Start!

What’s New
Now that you can describe or identify the exponent and the base in a
number expressed in exponential notation, in this part of the module, you will
learn how to give or find the value of numbers expressed in exponential notation.

Andrew is the official President of the Math Club in their school. Last
Monday, he invited 3 of his classmates to join. The next day, Tuesday, each of his
classmates invited 3 other students in Grade 4. If this pattern continued until
Thursday, how many students were invited on Thursday? How many students
invited to join in all?
What is It
After reading the problem with one of your family members, it’s time to analyze and
understand the problem.
After analyzing the problem, let’s try to answer the problem considering the
following…
On Tuesday, each of his classmates invited 3 other students. So, the number of
students they invited was doubled on Tuesday.
3×3=9
3 × 3 × 3= 27
On the last day, Thursday, the pattern continued. So the number they invited was
doubled also.
3 × 3 × 3 × 3 = 81
Answer: 81 students are invited to join the club on Thursday, and the total
number of students they invited is 120.
As we said to our previous lesson, we can use exponential notation to make the
number shorter and simple and to write easily.

So, let’s try to make the data above in exponential notation.
Monday 3 31 3
Tuesday 3×3 32 9
Wednesday 3×3×3 33 27
Total: 120
Solution:
7×7×7
49 × 7 Therefore, 7 × 7 × 7 = 𝟕𝟑 = 343
343
3×3×3×3×3
9 × 9 ×3 Therefore, 3 × 3 × 3× 3 × 3 = 𝟑𝟓 = 243
81 × 3

• Write 6 × 6 × 6 × 6 × 6 in exponential notation and find the value of it.
Solution:
6×6×6×6
36 × 36 Therefore, 6 × 6 × 6× 6 = 𝟔𝟒 = 1,296
1,296
Any number raised to the first power is equal to the number itself.
51 = 5 1501 = 150 2,4321 = 2,432 98,1271 = 98, 127
Expressions such as 101 , 102 , 103 , 104 , 105 , and so on are called power of 10.
The exponent indicates the number of zeroes the power of 10 has in expanded
form and its value.

times it is multiplied by itself).
The base is the number used as a factor (or the number multiplied by itself).
What are the other rules to remember in getting the value of a number expressed in
exponential notation?
What I Can Do
Problem Solving:
Your teacher sent worksheets to the class for your activity. She sent 4
worksheets to 4 of your classmates on Monday. On Tuesday, each of your 4
