Express 2 × 3Λ2 × 7 as a whole number.
To express 2 × 3Λ2 × 7 as a whole number, we need to simplify the expression using the order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS).
First, we calculate the power 3 raised to the power 2:
3 raised to the power 2 is 3 × 3 = 9.
Next, we substitute the result into the expression:
2 × 9 × 7 = 18 × 7 = 126.
Therefore, 2 × 3Λ2 × 7 equals 126.
