Apply the property of negative integer exponents to rewrite 15 to the power of -38 as an expression with positive exponents only

Answer 1

To rewrite \( 15^{-38} \) as an expression with positive exponents only, we can use the property of negative exponents, which states that:

\[ a^{-n} = \frac{1}{a^n} \]

Applying this property:

\[ 15^{-38} = \frac{1}{15^{38}} \]

Thus, the expression \( 15^{-38} \) can be rewritten as:

\[ \frac{1}{15^{38}} \]
