Hi!
Is there also a short form for "3 elevado a 2 igual a 9"? Would "3 a 2 son 9" work? (and is that even the correct translation of "to the whatever power"?)
Also, can I drop the "por" when variables are involved? Like "2 por x" -> "2 x"?

Exponents, Variables
This question relates to:Spanish lesson "Doing arithmetic in Spanish (numbers, addition, subtraction, multiplication, division)"

Hola Torsten
For that you could say something like:
3 elevado al cuadrado es 9
or
3 al cuadrado es 9
or
el cuadrado de 3 es 9
With multiplication you'd say "2 por 2 son 4"; you can't drop the "por".
Saludos
