3 ways to express 3 to the 5th power as the product of powers
First expression
=> 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 - In this expression, we multiplied 3 5 times and the product is 243
Second expression
=> 3 ^ 5, in where ^ read as raised to the power, the product is also 243
Third expression
=> 3^2 x 3^3
=> (3 x 3) x (3 x 3 x 3)
=> 9 x 27, the product also equals to 243.
So let's start out by labeling Ethan as X
Since 85 is 1/3 of what Ethan drove, that means Ethan drove 3 times of 85.
85= (3x) -21
85 -21 = 3x
60=3x
20 = x
