Answer:


(1)/(64)

Explanation:

This is an Exponent. It is when a number is being multiplied as many times as the Exponent on top.


\left((1)/(4)\right)^3 The ³ is the exponent,


(1)/(4) *(1)/(4) *(1)/(4) is the expansion, and

Multiply on top: 1 × 1 × 1 = 1

Multiply the bottom: 4 × 4 = 16. 16 × 4 = 64

Hence,
(1)/(64) is the product or simplified form.

Another way:


\underline{\mathrm{Exponent\:rule\:}}\left((a)/(b)\right)^c=(a^c)/(b^c)


\left((1)/(4)\right)^3


=(1^3)/(4^3)


1^3=1


=(1)/(4^3)


4^3=64


=(1)/(64)
