Imat question problem solving


can someone explain why the answer is 22

Hi!

using the formula a^loga(b)=b

then 2^log2(22) = 22
is the same as writing 22 = 22

we can try to write 22 a different way by using it’s prime factors but we get 22 = 2¹ * 11 which isn’t an option given here

2¹¹ = 2048
2²² = 4194304
these exponents are far too large to be equal to 22

Hope this helps!

thank you so much, you’ve been a great help
