Explanation:
The answer to 10^-2 is 1/100
Note that when there is a negative sign in the power, you will set the base and power over 1. Everything else is the same.
10^-2 = 1/100
Inside the question in the image, it says 10^-2 * x = 10^-4, in which you are solving for x.
Note that: 10^-2 = 1/100
10^-4 = 1/10000
Divide 1/10000 by 1/100
(1/10000)/(1/100) = 0.01
0.01 = 1/100
10^-2 would be your answer to the attached file
1/100 would be your answer to "[what] would [be] the answer be [to] 10^-2?"
