The study is survey model to determine the relationship between eighth grade students’ number sense and achievements related to exponentials and the pearson correlation coefficient is calculated to determine this relationship. As a result of the study, eighth grade students’ achievement related to using their number sense is low in exponentials questions, their achievement related to exponentials is mid level.
