In order to answer this question the parts must be broken down: 8^3 is 8*8*8 which equals 512 and 8^5 is 8*8*8*8*8 which equals 32761. 512*32761 equals 16777216. 167772176 is greater than 1.

Answer: The student is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

[tex]8^3.8^5[/tex]

Using the law of exponents, which states that,

[tex]a^m\times a^n=a^{m+n}[/tex]

So, we apply this first,

[tex]8^3\times 8^5\\\\=8^{3+5}\\=8^8\\\\=16777216[/tex]

which is obviously greater than 1.

Hence , the student is correct.
