In this blog post we will learn to about POWER function in excel. Whenever we want to return value of a number raised to its power then we can use POWER function which is readily available in excel. What is POWER of a number? In mathematics, POWER of a number means how many times a number we want to use in multiplication. For example, 5^2 (5 to the power of 2) means 5 is used twice in multiplication (5x5 = 25). 2^3 (2 to the power of 3) means 2 is used three times in multiplication (2x2x2 = 8).
