3^4 is 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 =
9 x 3 x 3 =
27 x 3 =
81.

10^10 is not 100. it is 10x10x10x10x10x10x10x10x10x10. which if way more than 100.
the number you have at the bottom is the number you will be mutiplying by itself. You'll multiply itself by the number you have at the top.
3^4=
3x3x3x3=
9x9= 81

3^4 = 3*3*3*3

3 *3 = 9
3 * 3 * 3 = 9*3 = 27
3 * 3 * 3 *3 = 27*3 = 81

so 3^4 = 81
