How do you type exponents on a computer? What is Equation Editor?

I have college algebra for one of my classes. We are working with exponents, but I cannot answer the practice problems because I can not figure out how to type in the answer with exponents.

Answer

You will need to use the Equation Editor feature in Microsoft Word.

Use the insert tab, and then click on the Equation option.

Once activated, the equation editor will give you many options for typing in fractions, scripts, brackets, functions, exponents, square roots, and more.
