With this exponent calculator, you can find the result of both positive and negative exponents. The input system is simple and easy to understand. By clicking on “show more”, you can also see all the steps of calculation.
Exponents can be defined as,
“The exponent of a number says how many times to use the number in a multiplication.”
For example, 3 exp 4 can be written as:
34 = 3×3×3×3 = 81
There are two types of exponents; positive and negative.
Exponents of a base that are equal to or greater than zero.
Example:
Solve 53.
Solution:
Step 1: Write the base, power number of times.
53 = 5 × 5 × 5
Step 2: Multiply.
53 = 5 × 5 × 5 = 125
Exponents that are smaller than zero.
Example:
Solve 6-3
Solution:
Step 1: Divide 6-3 by 1 to make the exponent positive.
6-3 = 1/63
Step 2: Write the base, power number of times.
1/63 = 1/(6 × 6 × 6) = 1/216
1/63 = 0.00463
