simplify (1/4)^{-2}

Solution

simplify

(\frac{1}{4})^{- 2}

Solution

16

Solution steps

(\frac{1}{4})^{- 2}

Apply exponent rule:

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

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

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

(\frac{1}{4})^{2} = \frac{1}{16}

= \frac{1}{\frac{1}{16}}

\frac{1}{\frac{1}{16}} = 16

= 16
