We learned how to take whole exponents that are negative and turn them into positive fractions where the numerator is 1 and the denominator is the base from the original expression to the power of the same exponent but in […]

Although I find division tables to be more straight forward, we used a tree diagram to demonstrate that 44 100 […]
