Answer :

In these cases, what they are looking for is an exponent. An Exponent is a power, when a single value is multiplied by itself several times over. 

Here, B is multiplied 4 times so the answer is B to the fourth, written as B, with a small number four to the upper right. 

This is B square (times itself once): B² (The symbols option doesn't go to the 4th. sorry.)
using the asssociative property of multiplication which is
a(bc)=(ab)c so
bxbxbxbx=(bx)(bx)(bx)(bx)
exponents tell how many times to multiply sometning by itself exg
2^3 means 2 times itself 3 times or 2^3 so
(bx)(bx)(bx)(bx)=(bx)^4
so if bxb means b times b where x mean multiply then

b times b times b times b=b times itself 4 times or b^4
