i really need to know what.... 4 to the power of 77 is...
477 = 2.28360 x 1046 according to my calculator.
i don't know how to do factors with two digit numbers.

To calculate 4 to the power of 77, you can use the rules of exponentiation. The formula is:
a^(m*n) = (a^m)^n
This means that if you have a number raised to the power of a product of two numbers, you can split the calculation into two steps. First, raise the number to the power of one of the numbers, and then raise the result to the power of the other number.
In this case, you can split 77 into 7 * 11:
4^77 = (4^7)^11
To calculate 4^7, you can use the same rule and split 7 into 2 * 2 * 2 + 1:
4^7 = (4^2 * 4^2 * 4^2) * 4
Now, let's calculate the individual parts:
4^2 = 4 * 4 = 16
Since 4^2 * 4^2 * 4^2 is the product of three equal numbers, we can simplify it to:
4^2 * 4^2 * 4^2 = (4 * 4 * 4) * (4 * 4 * 4) * (4 * 4 * 4) = 64 * 64 * 64
Calculating this multiplication:
64 * 64 * 64 = 262,144 * 64 = 16,777,216
Finally, we can substitute this result back into the original equation:
4^7 = 16,777,216 * 4 = 67,108,864
Now, using the calculation for 4^7, we can find 4^77:
4^77 = (4^7)^11 = 67,108,864^11 = approximately 2.28360 x 10^46
So, 4 to the power of 77 is approximately 2.28360 x 10^46.
