Exponent Calculator to Calculate Base Number Raised to nth Power

Calculator Preferences

Adust Calculator Width % Adjust Calculator Width: Move the slider to left and right to adjust the calculator width. Note that the instructions and tools panel will be hidden when the calculator is too wide to fit both on the screen. Moving the slider to the left will bring the instructions and tools panel back into view. Also note that some calculators will reformat to accommodate the screen size as you make the calculator wider or narrrower. If the calculator is narrow, columns of entry rows will be converted to a vertical entry form, whereas a wider calculator will display columns of entry rows, and the entry fields will be smaller in size ... since they will not need to be "thumb friendly".	Show/Hide Keypads Show/Hide Popup Keypads: Select Show or Hide to show or hide the popup keypad icons located next to numeric entry fields. These are generally only needed for mobile devices that don't have decimal points in their numeric keypads. So if you are on a desktop, you may find the calculator to be more user-friengly and less cluttered without them.	Stick/Unstick Tools Stick/Unstick Tools: Select Stick or Unstick to stick or unstick the help and tools panel. Selecting "Stick" will keep the panel in view while scrolling the calculator vertically. If you find that annoying, select "Unstick" to keep the panel in a stationary position. If the tools panel becomes "Unstuck" on its own, try clicking "Unstick" and then "Stick" to re-stick the panel.

Note: If the calculator did not calculate a result, please let me know whether you are using a Mac or Windows computer, and which web browser and version number you are using. If I don't know what your set up is I have no way to find and fix the issue. All calculators have been tested to work with the latest Chrome, Firefox, and Safari web browsers (all are free to download). I gave up trying to support other web browsers because they seem to thumb their noses at widely accepted standards. Reasons for grade Reason(s) I graded less than "A":

While I do research each calculator's subject prior to creating and upgrading them, because I don't work in those fields on a regular basis, I eventually forget what I learned during my research.

Tip

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.

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.

Exponents.

Exponent Definition

An exponent is the small number located in the upper, right-hand position of an exponential expression (base^exponent), which indicates the power to which the base of the expression is raised.

The following exponential expression shows how the exponent is used in raising the base:

4³ = 4 x 4 x 4 = 64

4 x 4 = 16
4 x 16 = 64

Negative Exponents

An exponential expression containing a negative exponent can be translated as follows:

4^-3

4³

= 0.015625

Negative Bases in Exponential Expressions

One thing to be aware of when working with exponential expressions that have negative signs next to their bases is that a negative sign that is not in parenthesis is different from a negative base that is enclosed by a parenthesis.

(-4)⁴ = -4 x -4 x -4 x -4 = 256

-4⁴ = -1 x 4 x 4 x 4 x 4 = -256

More "power" to you!
