Answer key
What is in this set
- The numbers in this set run from 2 to 5.
- Every problem in it will use the power of zero.
- A careful solution takes 1 written step on average.
- The mistake this set invites most often, in 100% of the problems: anything to the power zero is 1, not 0 — dividing a power by itself leaves one.
- Answers are a whole number.
Drawing 240 problems from this page produced 4 different ones, 2% — so a sheet of 20 will come back to a problem you have seen — there are only so many sensible ones of this kind.
The same skill, harder or easier

We would put this in front of a grade 8 class. That is our judgement, not a standard, and it is printed here so you can disagree with it. Everything else we put in that year.
