Answer:

Explanation:

You have to know how negative exponents "work" to understand this concept.


(1)/(10)=10^{-1 because if you want to make a negative exponent positive you put what the exponent is on under a 1. It follows then that you can go backwards from that and rewrite positive fractions with negative exponents.
