simplify

(2^{- 2})^{2}

Solution

\frac{1}{16}

+1

Decimal Notation

0.0625

Solution steps

(2^{- 2})^{2}

Apply exponent rule:

(a^{b})^{c} = a^{b c}, a \geq 0

= 2^{- 2 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 2 = 4

= 2^{- 4}

Apply exponent rule:

a^{- b} = \frac{1}{a ^{b}}

2^{- 4} = \frac{1}{2 ^{4}}

= \frac{1}{2 ^{4}}

2^{4} = 16

= \frac{1}{16}
