Astudent claims that 8 to the third power times 8 to the -5 power is greater than 1 explain whether the student is correct or not

I think he is not correct because there is negative number so it can't be greater than one

The question is kind of confusing. if it's asking how many variations of answers can you give. then do 4^5 for your answer.this would be something like the first question could be a and the 2nd c or first b next c etc. if you can, ask the teacher for a better confirmation of what it's asking. if i'm assuming correctly what it's asking, it's 625 different variations.
