##### Power (Mathematics) A shorthand method of indicating how many times a number, called the base, is multiplied by itself. For example, in the number $4^{3}$, 3 is the power, or exponent, and 4 is the base. That is, $4^3$ is equal to $4 \times 4 \times 4 = 64$. Also referred to as exponentiation.
