It's the inverse of the number raised to the power. 2 to the power of negative 3 would be 1/8th.1 over 25Improvement(shininggallade):When raising a whole number to a negative power, simply raise 5 to the second power, which is 25, and put a 1 over it. 5^-2=1/25 A more technical definition is to reverse the numerator and denominator and then apply the power. Remember 5 is the same as 5/1, so (5^-2)/1=1/(5^2)=1/25(The symbol for "to the power of" is "^" just to let you know.)

Seven raised to the power two means 7^2 or 'Seven squared'. 7^2 = 7 x 7 = 49
25 = 5 * 5, or "5 squared". This is sometimes typed as 5^2, of "5 raised to the second power".
The power could then be called an exponent. The number that is being raised to a power is called the base. In the case of 42, the exponent is 2 and the base is 4.
-2 to the second power is (-2) x (-2) = +4
It is: 5^2 = 25
(-10) raised to 2 = 100
2 to the second power, written 2 with a superscript, (raised half a line to the right of the numeral 2).
In exponential form, 64 can be expressed in at least four ways. These are 64 raised to the first power, 2 raised to the sixth power, 4 raised to the fourth power, and 8 raised to the second power.
(-3)^2 =9 but -3^2 = -9
What is 8 raised to the power of 2
9 = 3 ^ 2, or three raised to the second power.
It is 1 because any number raised to the power of 0 is 1.
Two raised to the seventh power is 128.
Two raised to the power of zero is 1
