\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "6 to the power of 5 so you go
\n" ); document.write( "6*6*6*6*6

First we handle the range of exponents thus:
\n" ); document.write( "5^3=5*5*5=125
\n" ); document.write( "5^2=5*5=25
\n" ); document.write( "5^1=5
\n" ); document.write( "5^0=1 *by definition)
\n" ); document.write( "5^(-1)=1/5
\n" ); document.write( "5^(-2)=1/5*5=1/25
\n" ); document.write( "5^(-3)=1/5*5*5=1/125
\n" ); document.write( "Also:
\n" ); document.write( "1/5^(-2)=1/(1/25)=1*25/1=25 or 5^2
\n" ); document.write( "5^5/5^(-2)=5^5*5^2=5^7
\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
