72

Explanation:

Using exponents is a ' shorthand' method for expressing repeated multiplication. That is the same value being multiplied by itself many times. The value of the exponent is the number of times the value is being multiplied by itself.

7×7=72 since there are 2 sevens being multiplied

7×7×7=73 since 3 sevens being multiplied

74 represents 7×7×7×7

and so on
