Raise any base to any power, including negative and fractional exponents.
Raise any base to any power, including negative and fractional exponents.
Enter values above and click Calculate — results will appear here with the formula explained.
An exponent counts repeated multiplication: 2¹⁰ = 2×2×2×…×2 ten times = 1024. Exponents grow astonishingly fast — doubling at each step turns 10 doublings into a thousandfold increase.
Negative exponents express reciprocals, so 2⁻³ = 1/8. Fractional exponents express roots: 9^(1/2) = 3 and 27^(1/3) = 3. These rules let a single formula handle growth, decay, scaling and roots alike.

An exponent counts repeated multiplication: 2¹⁰ = 2×2×2×…×2 ten times = 1024. Exponents grow astonishingly fast — doubling at each step turns 10 doublings into a thousandfold increase. Formula: xⁿ means x multiplied by itself n times; x⁻ⁿ = 1/xⁿ; x^(1/n) = ⁿ√x
Exponent Calculator computes raise any base to any power, including negative and fractional exponents. Formula: xⁿ means x multiplied by itself n times. Example: 2^10 = 1024.

2^10 = 1024. The same machinery gives 2^-10 = 1/1024 ≈ 0.00097656 and 16^(1/2) = 4.
