Full solution

Q. Write the expression as a fraction with a positive exponent. Do not evaluate the expression. \newline14779\frac{1}{47^{79}}
  1. Understand Rule: Understand the negative exponent rule.\newlineThe negative exponent rule states that for any non-zero number aa and any integer mm, am=1ama^{-m} = \frac{1}{a^m}. This means that a negative exponent indicates the reciprocal of the base raised to the positive of that exponent.
  2. Apply Rule: Apply the negative exponent rule to 477947^{-79}. Using the rule from Step 11, we can rewrite 477947^{-79} as 1/47791 / 47^{79}. This is the expression written as a fraction with a positive exponent.
