Explaining Exponent Evaluation for Logistics Multipliers

An apprentice inventory manager is reviewing a logistics manual for a fulfillment center. The manual uses exponential multipliers to determine the total slots in two storage zones: Zone A has a multiplier of ${}2^3$ and Zone B has a multiplier of ${}3^2$ .

To ensure the team understands how to calculate these capacity multipliers, explain how to expand and evaluate both ${}2^3$ and ${}3^2$ . In your response, clearly state the base and exponent for each expression, show how they are expanded as multiplication, and calculate their final values.
