An exponent is something that raises a number or a variable to a power. It is a process of repeated multiplication. For example, the expression means to multiply 2 times itself 3 times or. In, the 2 is called the base and the 3 is called the exponent. Both the base and the exponent can be either a number or a variable. Each of the following is an example of an exponential expression. When both the base and the exponent are numbers, we can evaluate the expression as we did with.
As you can see, the exponent of 10 is the number of places the decimal point must be shifted to give the number in long form. A positive exponent shows that the decimal point is shifted that number of places to the right. A negative exponent shows that the decimal point is shifted that number of places to the left. In scientific notation, the digit term indicates the number of significant figures in the number. The exponential term only places the decimal point.
