![]() ![]() This negative 20 needs to turn into a positive 20. ![]() We’re going to move it to the top what we’re trying to do is we’re trying to make the exponent positive. ![]() Now the same process we used in number one also works in number three except instead of moving our term to the bottom, like we did, our term is already on the bottom. Moving on to number three on our negative exponents rule we have 1 over 7 to the negative twentieth. This will be our answer and it shows how to make a negative exponent positive. The placeholder we’re going to use is the number one because one divided by five to the ninth doesn’t change the actual value of the term. If we want it becomes 5 you keep the base and then you make the exponent positive 5 to the positive ninth our term on top is gone but we have to include a placeholder. We take 5 to the negative ninth, we can write our fraction bar. After you do that the exponent will become positive. In order to make this exponent positive you have to take your term here, which is 5 to the negative ninth, and you have to move the entire thing to the bottom of the fraction bar. 5 to the negative ninth actually has a 1 or is being divided by one underneath of it, even though we don’t write it every single time. That might not make any sense at first but you have to remember that all whole numbers are written over 1. The way you make this exponent positive is that you have to flip it on to the other side of the fraction bar. In the case of number one this exponent here of negative nine needs to be turned into a positive nine. Now in order to simplify each expression with a negative exponent you have to make the exponent positive. Here is the first problem in our negative exponents practice worksheet.
