Question

5 Victor knows that 2 + 7 = 7+2 and 2•7= 7•2

Answer 1

Answer:2^7 ≠ 7^2

Step-by-step explanation:

2^7 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2

The only factor is 2

7^2 = 7 * 7

The only factor is 7

Comparing the factors when written as a repeated multiplication,

2^7 and 7^2 have no common factor :

2^7 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 * 2 = 128

7^2 = 7 * 7 = 49
