Key Concepts

Negative Exponents

A negative exponent indicates that the base should be taken as the reciprocal of itself raised to the corresponding positive exponent. If a number a is raised to the power of -n, it is equivalent to 1 divided by a raised to the n.

Reciprocal

The reciprocal of a number is one divided by that number. In the context of exponent rules, the reciprocal is used to convert a negative exponent into a positive exponent by inverting the base.
