Copy long division - can it raise the power? (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pylon

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'it raise the power?' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'copy long division' is the wordplay.
'PYLON' is hidden in amongst the letters.
But, I'm uncertain how the hidden word is indicated.

'can' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?
