Yes, that is the basic idea - if the exponent (the number with a superscript) is a positive integer. However, negative and fractional exponents are also defined; you can verify this with any scientific calculator (use a positive number as the base, in this case).
Note: In a number such as 103, 10 is the base, 3 is the exponent.

In maths indices are little superscript numbers that are powers, ie they tell you how many times to multiply the base number by itself. eg in 103 the 3 is the index (singular of indices) which tells you to multiply 10 by itself thrice, ie 103 = 10 x 10 x 10 = 1000.
The exponent tells that.
colol\the base
The exponent
It tells you which number, when multiplied by itself, will give you the number you started with.

the exponent
Exponent
Base and exponent are the two parts of a power. The base is the lower left, normal-sized, number. The exponent is the upper-right, small (i.e., superscript) number. For example, in: 34 3 is the base, 4 is the exponent. In the simplest case, a power specifies a repeated multiplication. The base tells you what number to multiply by itself, the exponent tells you how many times to multiply it. Thus, 34 = 3 x 3 x 3 x 3 (that is, multiply 3 by itself, using the number 4 times as a factor)
its the beard it makes me look like santa.
The exponent is the small raised number (the superscript) that tells how many times a factor is used.
it is called an exponent and you multiply c by itself as many times as the exponent tells you. sorry if this doesn't help
The exponent.
You multiply the base number by itself as many times as the exponent tells you. Example 4^4 =4•4•4•4= 256
In a power expression, you have two numbers.The number written normally (to the left) is called the BASE. That's what tells you what factor you should multiply by itself. The small raised number (to the right) tells you how often the factor is used. It's called the EXPONENT.
The exponent tells that.
