How do you raising a number to a large power?
A number can be raised to a large power or exponent either through the use of a powerful calculator or computer, or with time and patience. A large power or exponent implies the base number is being multiplied by itself many time. While this is possible to do by hand, it is very tedious and, for ver large exponents and bases, very prone to error.
What is the difference between scientific notation and negative exponents?
Scientific notation is a way to express very large or very small numbers. For very large exponent is positive; for very small exponent is negative. For example, 1,000,000 is 1 x 10 to the plus 6 exponent; 0.000001 is 1 x 10 to the negative 6 exponent
What is a base in the laws of exponents?
