Chapter 4.6, Problem 26E

To determine

To write $\frac{1}{10,000}$ without a fraction bar.

Answer to Problem 26E

  ${10}^{-4}$

Explanation of Solution

Given information: $\frac{1}{10,000}$

  $\frac{1}{10,000}$

Thus it becomes

  $=\frac{1}{{10}^4}$

change the position of a number or variable in a fraction, it can be done so by reversing the sign of its exponent.

  $={10}^{-4}$

  $={10}^{-4}$ Denotes the expression without a fraction bar.
