Answer:

0.0000416.

Explanation:

When 10 is raised to a negative power, that means that the decimal point will be moved to the left a certain number of units.

In this case, it is 10^-5, so the decimal point will move to the left by 5 units.

4.16 * 10^-5 = 000004.16 * 10^-5 = 0.0000416.

Hope this helps!
