Question: 1 / 400

What is the value of the expression 2^3 × 3^2?

54

60

72

To find the value of the expression \(2^3 \times 3^2\), we first compute each power separately.

Calculating \(2^3\):

\[

2^3 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 = 8

\]

Next, calculate \(3^2\):

\[

3^2 = 3 \times 3 = 9

\]

Now, we need to multiply these two results together:

\[

8 \times 9 = 72

\]

Thus, the value of the expression \(2^3 \times 3^2\) is 72. This makes the correct choice the one that provides this value. In this case, the answer aligns with the calculated result, confirming that \(72\) is indeed the solution to the problem.
