Laws of Indices Calculator
𝑥 Algebra. Use the Laws of indices (multiplying) formula to find result, base a, m, n: pick the value you want, type the others, and the answer updates as you go.
Result128
Pick the ○ next to the value you want to find, fill in the others, and it solves as you type.
What each letter means
| Quantity | Unit |
|---|---|
| Result | no unit |
| Base a | no unit |
| m | no unit |
| n | no unit |
Worked example
Find the result when Base a = 2, m = 3, n = 4.
Using a^m × aⁿ = a^(m+n): Result = 128.
Frequently asked questions
What is the formula for Laws of indices (multiplying)?
a^m × aⁿ = a^(m+n).
What do the letters stand for, and what units are used?
Result, Base a, m, n.
How do you calculate result?
Put the values into a^m × aⁿ = a^(m+n). For example, with Base a = 2, m = 3, n = 4, result = 128.
Can I solve for a different value?
Yes. In the calculator above, pick the circle next to any value (result, base a, m, n) and fill in the others: it rearranges the formula for you.
