Below is the formula.
$5^{40}=$
9094947017729282379150390625
Also, $5^{40}$ has 28 digits.
This time, I will explain how to find the value of $5^{40}$ and how to solve for the number of digits in $5^{40}$.
Calculating 5 to the 40th Power
5 to the 40th power is simply 5 multiplied by 40 times.
Basically, the only way to solve it is by multiplication.
Also, you can use google search.

As explained, the calculation of the power takes time, so it may be obtained as step 1.
Next, let's find the number of digits in $5^{40}$.
Number of digits in 5 to the 40th power
Calculating $5^{40}$ gives us 28 digits.
Find the number of digits in 5 to the 40th power
Let's actually ask for it.
Let's calculate the common logarithm of 5 to the 40th power.
\begin{eqnarray}
\log_{10}5^{40}&=&40 \log_{10}5\\
&=&40\times 0.6989\cdots\\
&=&27.958
\end{eqnarray}
In other words,
We can say that $5^{40}=10^{27.958}$, so we know that $5^{40}$ has 28 digits.
How to find the number of digits
To find the number of digits in $5^{40}$, use common logarithms.
By using the common logarithm, we can calculate the power of 10, so we know the number of digits.
For example, $10^1=10$ is 2 digits.
On the other hand, $10^2=100$, so 3 digits.
So $10^a$ has $10+1$ digits.
If $a$ is a decimal, the number of digits is the integer part plus 1.
$a=11.34$ will be 12 digits.
