"Integral Exponents"

Now lets talk about integral exponents.
To square a number means to multiply the number by itself.
In other words you can add the number by itself as many times as you would multiply it.
For example with Eight squared ( 8^2 ) You can either multiply 8 by itself or add the number 8 eight times.
Exponents relate to finding an area because in order to find the area of something you have to
multiply.
To cube a number you have to multiply the number 3 times by itself.
For example- 2^3 in other cases is the same thing as 2*2*2 .

So thats basically it.
