  2. Fifth power (algebra) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fifth_power_(algebra)

    For any integer n, the last decimal digit of n 5 is the same as the last (decimal) digit of n, i.e. ()By the Abel–Ruffini theorem, there is no general algebraic formula (formula expressed in terms of radical expressions) for the solution of polynomial equations containing a fifth power of the unknown as their highest power.

  3. Exponentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponentiation

    The base 3 appears 5 times in the multiplication, because the exponent is 5. Here, 243 is the 5th power of 3, or 3 raised to the 5th power. The word "raised" is usually omitted, and sometimes "power" as well, so 3 5 can be simply read "3 to the 5th", or "3 to the 5".

  4. Power of two - Wikipedia

    The first 3 powers of 2 with all but last digit odd is 2 4 = 16, 2 5 = 32 and 2 9 = 512. The next such power of 2 of form 2 n should have n of at least 6 digits. The only powers of 2 with all digits distinct are 2 0 = 1 to 2 15 = 32 768, 2 20 = 1 048 576 and 2 29 = 536 870 912.
