To rewrite \( 15^{-38} \) using the property of negative integer exponents, we can use the rule that states:
\[
a^{-n} = \frac{1}{a^n}
\]
Applying this rule to \( 15^{-38} \):
\[
15^{-38} = \frac{1}{15^{38}}
\]
Thus, the expression with positive exponents only is:
\[
\frac{1}{15^{38}}
\]
\[
a^{-n} = \frac{1}{a^n}
\]
Applying this rule to \( 15^{-38} \):
\[
15^{-38} = \frac{1}{15^{38}}
\]
Thus, the expression with positive exponents only is:
\[
\frac{1}{15^{38}}
\]
