This is only true for positive exponents greater than 1. Anyways, an exponent means multiplying something by itself. When you have a fraction, you are finding a fraction of a fraction so .25^2 is a quarter of a quarter which is .0625. Where 2^2 is 2 doubled which is 4. It just be that way sometimes ‍♂️

yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

The approximate circumference is 62.8 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference is basically the perimeter of the circle

Circumference is given by

$2 *\pi *r$

Here the diameter is 20 mm, so the radius will be half of diameter = 10 mm

Substituting the given values, in above equation, we get -

Circumference =

$2 *3.14 * 10 \\62.8$ mm

The approximate circumference is 62.8 mm
