Easy medal. Simplify 5 ^-4 over 5 ^3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's a fraction by the way.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the answer is 0.0000128

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No it has to be simplified in fraction form and I wanted to make sure I done been a right. I'm not good with these. Do you know the answer simplified in fraction form?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

5^-4 = 1/625 and 5^3 = 125

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then since it is a fraction (the original question) you get 1/625/125 and this equates to 0.0000128
