What is the value of 2 to the power of 20?

Solution:

We solve this by rule of exponents and power. The exponent of any number represents how many times is the number being multiplied.

Given, 2 to the power of 20

Basically, the rules for exponents states that if p is a positive integer and m is any real number, then p^m can be represented as:

p^m = p × p × … × m (m times)

Hence, 2 to the power of 20 can be written as 2²⁰.

Here, the number 2 is called the base, whereas 20 is the power or exponent of the expression.

Therefore, 2²⁰ = 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 1048576

Hence, 2 to the power of 20 is 1048576.

What is the value of 2 to the power of 20?

Summary:

2 to the power of 20 is 1048576.
