Key Concepts

Negative Exponents

Negative exponents indicate the reciprocal of the base raised to the corresponding positive exponent. This means that a number with a negative exponent can be rewritten as 1 divided by that number raised to the absolute value of the exponent.

Scientific Notation

Scientific notation is a way to express very large or very small numbers in a compact format by using powers of 10. This method makes it easier to work with extremes in scale by standardizing the representation of numbers.

Exponentiation

Exponentiation is a mathematical operation involving a base raised to a power. The exponent indicates how many times the base is multiplied by itself, conveying repeated multiplication in a concise form.
