If your calculator is advanced, like the TI-84, there is an exponent button you can hit. Then, just Type negative and the exponent. If it is a simpler calculator, like a four-function calculator, there IS a way. By raising a number to a negative exponent, you are saying that one is being divided by that number to the positive version of that power. Ex: 5^-8 = 1/(5^8). To do this, divide one by the base, then raise it to the exponent, making sure that the exponent is POSITIVE. Also be careful that the entire denominator is in parentheses, just in case.
Move the base number to the 'other side" of a division bar and change the exponent to the opposite sign. Example: 1/9 = 3^-2 becomes 1/(3^2) or 4 = 1/ (2^-2) becomes 2^2. Try it on your calculator to check your work.
hold in shift then press the 3 OFF TO THE SIDE NOT THE ONES AT THE TOP OF THE KEY BOARD
The two are related. The answer could be base 2, exponent 18 or base 8, exponent 6 or base 10, exponent 5.4185 or base 262144, exponent 1 or base 68,719,476,736 and exponent 0.5
On scientific calculators, the exponent key is usually [^] , [yx] , or [exp] .
negative 4 with negative 3 as an exponent

Hit the EE button on the calculator, and two zeros pop up on the right side of the screen. You then can type any one or two digit number as your exponent.
On most calculators, the exponent button is denoted by a caret symbol (^) or a raised "x" symbol. To calculate an exponent, you typically input the base number, press the exponent button, and then enter the exponent value. For example, to calculate 2 raised to the power of 3, you would input "2 ^ 3" or "2 raised to the power of 3" on the calculator.

A scientific calculator should have several related keys: a power key, often labeled something like xy or yx, to calculate powers; two antilogarithm keys (10x and ex), which often require you to press some sort of "shift" key first; and a key to type numbers in scientific notation - sometimes labeled something like "EXP". To use the latter key, type the mantissa, press the key, then type the exponent.
The answer depends on your calculator but many have shortcut keys for "x10x" or something similar.
Simple: Don't use a calculator. Just go to your Search bar and type, for instance, (5^3)^-6. The ^ key makes the number after it an exponent. Then... Google supplies the answer. :) It's easy.
enter a value "x", press the "^" key, then enter the value you want to raise "x" to, "y". the calculator should show X^Y, for whatever you substituted. hit enter.
