I'm just guessing because there isn't much data, but the ages could be:
1, 8, and 9
3, 3, and 8
1, 8, and 9
1, 6, and 12
2, 3, and 12
3, 4, and 6
2, 4, and 9
(These aren't all the possible ages)

What is 3^-4 as a fraction?
nalin [4]

Hello there!

Remember the Negative Exponent Law. If we have a number with a negative exponent, we flop it over.

So our answer looks like so:

\frac{1}{3^{4} }

<h2>Therefore, our answer is: \frac{1}{3^{4} }</h2>

Hope this helps you!
