Word 2010 and Mathematics............

UnderPressure

Morning all

I wonder if one of you wonderful people could help me out with something, I need to insert the equation:

1.14 times 10 to the power of 11

into a word document, it is proving to be a bit of a nightmare, I have downloaded the Microsoft mathematics add in and also have to pro version of mathtype and still cannot see how to do it

Any ideas appreciated, thanks in advance

1. Click where you want to insert the equation.
2. On the Insert menu, click Object, and then click the Create New tab.
3. In the Object type box, click Microsoft Equation.

1. Click OK.
2. Build the equation by selecting symbols from the Equation toolbar (toolbar: A bar with buttons and options that you use to carry out commands. To display a toolbar, press ALT and then SHIFT+F10.) and by typing variables and numbers. From the top row of the Equation toolbar, you can choose from more than 150 mathematical symbols. From the bottom row, you can choose from a variety of templates or frameworks that contain symbols such as fractions, integrals, and summations.

Just doing it now and they changed it to "Microsoft Maths 3.0"

What's wrong with superscripting the 11?

That's not an equation! But yeah - I'd just use the letter x to represent multiplication (or insert the specific "multiplication" character object) and superscript the 11...
