Re: Can U solve this?
Yes it is correct.
Another one is 8!

Re: Can U solve this?
Hi;
In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
Probability is the most important concept in modern science, especially as nobody has the slightest notion what it means.
90% of mathematicians do not understand 90% of currently published mathematics.

Hi julianthemath
How can 0, 1, 2 and 3 be operations?

I'm curious about this too! That's why I asked if my answer was correct.
Edit: I kind of lagged on that one. 
Why don't you just have it so that people can use any numbers given to "build" the exponent? Might allow for more creative answers.

Re: Can U solve this?
I think he means you must make 5 from those numbers and operators.

Oh. The answer is:
