In exponential notation, the base is the number that is multiplied, and the exponent represents the number of times the base is used as a factor. In 8³, 8 is the base and 3 is the exponent (e.g., 8³ = 8 ∙ 8 ∙ 8).

The square root of a whole number that is not a perfect square is an irrational number (e.g., √2 is an irrational number). An irrational number cannot be expressed exactly as a fraction 𝑎/𝑏 where 𝑏 does not equal 0.

A number written in scientific notation is the product of two factors — a decimal greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10, and a power of 10 (e.g., 3.1 x 10⁵= 310,000 and 2.85 x 10-⁴ = 0.000285).

The positive and negative square root of any whole number other than a perfect square lies between two consecutive integers (e.g., √57 lies between 7 and 8 since 7² = 49 and 8² = 64; −√11 lies between −4 and −3 since (−4)² = 16 and (−3)² = 9).
