On a laptop, how do you get the 10 to the 3rd power? ( make a small 3 after the 10?)
103
To make that, surround the 3 by
Or you can use
10^3
Hi Ms. Sue ... how do you make the small 3 by itself after the 10?
I can't seem to show how to do the superscript. This site explains.

To express 10 to the 3rd power on a laptop, you would use superscript formatting. Superscript formatting raises a character or number slightly above the normal line of text. Here's how you can do it:
1. Open a text editor or any software where you can type text.
2. Type the number "10" normally.
3. Highlight the "3" that you want to make small and place it into a superscript formatting.
- In most text editors or word processors, you can select the "3" and look for a formatting option in the menu toolbar or the formatting toolbar.
- If you are using Microsoft Word or Google Docs, you can find the superscript option by selecting the "3" and then going to the "Font" or "Format" menu. Look for a superscript option, which is usually represented by a small "x2" or "Tt" icon.
- In some software or text fields, you can also use specific keyboard shortcuts, such as "Ctrl + Shift + =" to enable superscript mode before typing the "3".
4. After applying the superscript format, the "3" should appear slightly smaller and raised above the line of text, indicating that it is an exponent.
Just note that not all software or text fields support superscript formatting. In those cases, you can use other notations to represent exponents, such as writing "10^3" to indicate 10 to the power of 3.
