Now, now, you’re getting excited. Remember, when the base number, b, which is 10 in this case, is more than 1, any negative power of b will be a fraction, that is, less than 1.

Besides, you learned how to represent 10 times 10 as a number in the form of bn quite a few pages ago.
Return to Page 125, now, and choose the right answer.
