Question

Sarah has two boxes of chocolates as shown. Express the total number of chocolates in exponent form.

• A. ${10}^2$
• B. ${10}^3$
• C. ${10}^4$
• D. $2^{10}$

Answer 1

The correct option is B ${10}^3$

Total number of chocolates:

= 500 + 500

= 1000

This is equivalent to 10 $\times$ 10 $\times$ 10.

= ${10}^3$

Hence, the total number of chocolates in exponent notation = ${10}^3$
