Selected Data Record:

A Data Record is a set of calculator entries that are stored in your web browser's Local Storage. If a Data Record is currently selected in the "Data" tab, this line will list the name you gave to that data record. If no data record is selected, or you have no entries stored for this calculator, the line will display "None".

DataData recordData recordSelected data record: None
Base:Base:Base of exponential expression:Base of exponential expression:

Base of exponential expression:

Enter the base number (integers only) of the exponential expression. For example, in the expression 24, the number two would be the base. If you are entering a negative sign be sure to indicate the parenthesis preference on the next line.

− options:− options:Negative sign options:Negative sign options:

Parenthesis options:

If you are entering a negative sign you will need to select whether or not the negative sign and base are in parenthesis. (-4)2 = 16 whereas -42 = -16 (additive inverse of 42).

Exponent:Exponent:Exponent (base raised to this power):Exponent (base raised to this power):

Exponent (base raised to this power):

Enter the positive or negative integer of the exponential expression (maximum of 500). For example, in the expression 24, the number four would be the exponent.

Base raised to power:Base raised to power:Base raised to power:Result of base raised to entered power:

Result of base raised to entered power:

This is the entered base number raised to the entered exponent.

If you would like to save the current entries to the secure database, tap or click on the Data tab, select "New Data Record", give the data record a name, then tap or click the Save button. To save changes to previously saved entries, simply tap the Save button. Please select and "Clear" any data records you no longer need.

About

About the Exponent Calculator

This calculator will calculate the answer of a base number raised to nth power, including exponential expressions having negative bases and/or exponents.

Plus, the calculated results will include either an exponential multiplication chart (for positive exponents) or a decimal conversion chart (for negative exponents).

Note that if you're ever looking to save some time when finding the square root of a number (2√x instead of x2), be sure to check out my Square Root Calculator.

Instructions

How to use the Exponent Calculator

Step #1:

Enter either a positive or negative base integer.

Step #2:

If the entered base has a negative sign in front of the integer, tap the appropriate option to indicate whether or not you want the base encased in a set of parenthesis.

Step #3:

Enter either a positive or negative exponent integer.

Step #4:

Click the "Calculate Power" button. This will find the base raised to the entered power and display a chart showing how the result was arrived at. Note that this calculator only handles results that are up to 15 numeric characters in length.

Saving Entries:

If your web browser supports Local Storage, you can save your entries to your web browser so won't have to start over on your next visit. Please note that your saved entries can only be retrieved from the same device and web browser you were using when you stored them. If you would like to access your saved entries from any device I invite you to subscribe to the Ad-Free Member Version.

To save your entries to your web browser, click or tap the Data tab in the Help and Tools section (mobile: top right of the main screen), select "New Data Record" from the drop-down menu, enter a name for the data record, and then tap or click the Save button.

To load previously saved entries, click or tap the Data tab and select the saved data record from the drop-down menu. You can then save any changes to your entries by simply clicking the Save button while the data record is selected.

To clear a named set of saved entries, click or tap the Data tab, select the saved data record from the drop-down menu, and then tap or click the Clear button.

Numbers and Decimals:

Only numeric characters (0-9 and decimal points) may be entered in numeric fields. Non-numeric characters (dollar signs, percent signs, commas, etc.) may cause calculation errors. If the field includes a grid icon, tapping the icon will open a popup keypad which will include only the characters allowed in the field. If your device keypad does not include a decimal point, use this popup keypad to enter decimal numbers where applicable.

Popup Tool Tips:

Tap the info (i) icons for a further explanation of each entry field (you can click [X] or outside of the pop-up tool tips to close them). A summary of these explanations, along with any additional term explanations, can also be found under the Terms tab.

Disclaimer:

Since I can't test for every possible combination of numbers, please be sure to double-check the results of this calculator yourself before considering them to be valid. If you do discover an issue with the calculated results, please report the issue using the feedback form located below the calculator.

Scrolling & Shrinking:

In order to scroll the calculator vertically you will need to swipe just outside of the calculator's dark-blue border, or use the window's far right-hand scroll bar, whichever is applicable to your device.

If the top section of the calculator becomes to tall for your viewport, tapping in the "Enter a problem..." field should reset the top section to its original height.

Disclaimer:

The Algebra Calculator is the only calculator on the site that I did not create myself. And since I did not create it, I don't have access to the code for fixing any issues you may be experiencing. So if you are having issues with the calculator, please visit the support page at Mathway.com for assistance.
