00:01 So here we have one half to the fifth power.
00:04 So we have a rational expression or fraction raised to an exponent or we take the numerator and the denominator both to that same exponent.
00:12 This is one half to the fifth.
00:13 It means one half times one half times one half times one half times one half, right, five times.
00:18 So this is equal to, well, one to the fifth over two to the fifth.
