POWER Formula Syntax
Example Use Case
Raising a number to a specified power for exponential calculations
Understanding the POWER Formula
The POWER function in Excel raises a number to a specified exponent, offering a clear way to handle exponentiation. It’s an alternative to the ^ operator, useful for growth models, scaling, or mathematical expressions.
POWER(2, 3) returns 8 (2^3), taking two arguments: the base and the exponent. It handles positive, negative, or fractional powers, making it versatile for finance (interest), physics (energy), or custom formulas.
Why Use POWER?
POWER simplifies exponentiation with explicit syntax—great for readability or complex nested calculations. It’s a reliable choice for exponential trends, unit conversions, or anytime you need precise powering.
Example with Sample Data
Base, Exponent | Formula | Result |
---|---|---|
2, 3 | =POWER(2, 3) | 8 |
5, 2 | =POWER(5, 2) | 25 |
9, 0.5 | =POWER(9, 0.5) | 3 |
POWER lifts numbers: 2^3 is 8, 9^0.5 (square root) is 3. It’s an exponent expert.
