Thank you We sneak in and here's your shmoop du

00:05

jour brought to you by fractional bases makes it really

00:08

tough to tell if someone safe or not All right

00:12

what's this thing One fifth of negative Third Well here's

00:17

something lancers All right here we go This question wants

00:23

us to make sure we know our way around and

00:25

negative exposed When our bases of fractions we know that

00:28

negative exponents usually make our basis smaller But what happens

00:36

when our bases already less than one yeah you guessed

00:41

it it goes in the other direction You are very

00:43

small base is about to get an enhancement Whenever we

00:46

have a number like this we can rewrite it with

00:48

the exponents being applied to the numerator and denominator separately

00:53

So here one fifth of negative third is the same

00:55

as one to the negative third over five the negative

00:59

third cheesier to handle you make it easier still we

01:02

can turn our exponents positive as long as we remember

01:05

to switch our numerator and denominator And now our exponents

01:08

are positive Three well five cube is five five times

01:13

five which is a hundred twenty five and one Cubit

01:16

is what upon times online order at one one twenty

01:19

five over one is same as one twenty five and 00:01:21.786 --> [endTime] our answer is the and we're out of here
