The power (or exponent) of a number says how many times to use the number in a multiplication.
It is written as a small number to the right and above the base number.
In this example the little "2" says to use 8 two times in a multiplication:
82 = 8 × 8 = 64
But power can also mean the result of using an exponent, so in the previous example "64" is also called the power.
Another example: 24 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 16
• the power is 4: "2 to the power 4 is 16"
• or we can say the power is the result of 16: "the 4th power of 2 is 16"

And like so many families, my family fell into the habit of living that "grab-and-go" lifestyle, eating more and more between meals." my sister took this test.

"C. By reviewing information in and around the unknown word."
When attempting to decipher the meaning of a new word, it is often useful to look at what comes before and after that word. The surrounding words can give readers helpful context clues about the meaning and structure of the new word, as well as how it is used.
The answer would be 3, a preposition or a conjunction. Hope this helped.
