Answer:

1/10^5 (1 over 10 to the power of 5)

Explanation:

Move 10^−5 to the denominator in 10−^5 using the negative exponent rule b^−n=1/b^n so basically that would mean the answer would be 1 over 10 to the power of 5:

1/10^5

The positive exponents demonstrate the number of times the foundation is multiplied, and the further discussion can be defined as follows:

It says how so many times a base amount is multiplied and a negative exponent tells us how many instances a base number is divided.

These exponents are important in mathematics because they allow us to short anything which otherwise is truly tedious to write.

Converting the positive exponent:
