Answer:

R = 2.2242

Explanation:

We can say that this is equal to (200 * 0.011) * 1.011, because (200 * 0.011)/(1/1.011) is equal to (200 * 0.011) * 1.011 (Look below for explanation). Next, we can say that 200 * 0.011 is 2.2 because you move the decimal place by 2 and then you multiply by 2 when you multiply by 2. The answer is 2.2242 because 2.2 * 0.011 is equal to 2.2242.

Whenever you have a negative exponent , it is equal to 1 over that number to that same power but positive (Ex.
y^(-x) = (1)/(y^(x))).
