Fifth power (algebra)

In arithmetic and algebra, the fifth power or sursolid of a number n is the result of multiplying five instances of n together:

n 5 = n \times n \times n \times n \times n

.

Fifth powers are also formed by multiplying a number by its fourth power, or the square of a number by its cube.
