Can you please help me with this exponent problem. 10 to the power of -9. ------------------
10^-9
---
The negative means "invert"
---
The 9 is the power to which 10 is raised.
---------------------------
You can perform those two operations in any order.
-----------------------------
10^-9
---
invert to get (1/10^9)
---
raise the 10 to the 9th power to get
1/1,000,000,000
