Answer 1

Answer:

Required Answer:-

Every number raised to a negative exponent will have a value smaller than 1.

• It will only be negative if the number is negative with an odd exponent.
• what you're actually doing is dividing instead of multiplying.

$\sf 4^2=16 \\ But \\ \sf 4^{-2}={\dfrac {1}{16}}$
