The number of pieces per stack after 3 cuts represented by a power expression can be written as [tex] 3^{3} [/tex]

  • The number of equal pieces per cut = 3

  • The number of cuts made = 3

Using a power expression :

  • The number of of equal pieces per cut is raised to a power which represents the number of cuts made

  • Thus we have [tex] number\: of \:equal\: pieces^{number\: of \:cuts} [/tex]

  • After 1 cut ; [tex] 3^{1} = 3 [/tex]
  • After 2 cuts ; [tex] 3^{2} = 3\times3 = 9 [/tex]
  • After 3 cuts ; [tex] 3^{3} = 3\times3\times3 = 27 [/tex]

Therefore, the Number of pieces present in stack after 3 cuts is [tex] 3^{3} [/tex]
