Multiplying the vertices
If 2⁴ x 3¹ = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 = 48 and 2⁰ x 3² = 3 x 3 = 9 Using this method to set out your work and solve:
2² x 3³
A box of biscuits
A box of biscuits contains 36 biscuits. 20 biscuits have foil wrappers. 15 are chocolate biscuits with foil wrappers. If 9 are not chocolate and do not have a foil wrapper, then how many chocolate biscuits are there?
2^2 x 3^3 = 2*2*3*3*3 = 108
