`(3)/(100)` or 0.03

Explanation:

3×
`10^(-2)`

3 ×
`(1)/(100)`

Answer 2

0.03

Explanation:

the first thing you would do in this equation is to deal with the exponent

a negative exponent puts the number under 1

1/10^2

10^2 is also 100

1/100

3 * 1/100 is 3/100 so that is your answer

3/100 is also 0.03
