Apply the Property of Negative Integer Exponents to solve 7^-3. The answer should not contain any exponents expression or decimals

1 answer

The Property of Negative Integer Exponents states that for any non-zero number 𝑎, 𝑎⁻𝑛 is equal to 1 divided by 𝑎ⁿ.

Applying this property to solve 7⁻³, we can rewrite it as 1 divided by 7³.

1 / 7³ = 1 / (7 * 7 * 7) = 1 / 343

Therefore, the simplified answer without any exponent expression or decimals is 1/343.
