About Exponent Calculator

An exponent calculator computes the result of raising a number (base) to a power (exponent).

Types of Exponents

Positive Integer

a^n = a × a × ... × a (n times)

Negative Exponent

a^(-n) = 1 / (a^n)

Fractional Exponent

a^(1/n) = nth root of a

Zero Exponent

a^0 = 1 (for any a ≠ 0)

Exponent Rules

  • • a^m × a^n = a^(m+n) (Product Rule)
  • • a^m ÷ a^n = a^(m-n) (Quotient Rule)
  • • (a^m)^n = a^(m×n) (Power Rule)
  • • (a×b)^n = a^n × b^n (Distributive Rule)
  • • a^(-n) = 1/a^n (Negative Exponent Rule)
  • • a^(1/n) = √a (Root Rule)
