Apply the Property of Negative Integer Exponents to rewrite 15^−38

Question

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, we have:

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

So, \( 15^{-38} \) can be rewritten as \( \frac{1}{15^{38}} \).
