Question

2^2

2^6

2^8

2^16

Answer 1

To find the total number of books in the cupboard, we need to calculate (24)2 ⋅ 20.

Taking (24)2,
2^4 = 16
So, (24)2 = 16 x 16 = 256.

Now, we multiply by 20:
256 x 20 = 5120.

Therefore, the total number of books in the cupboard is 5120.

Please note that none of the given options 2^2, 2^6, 2^8, 2^16 is equal to 5120.
