It then delves into exponentiation with fractions, explaining the process and providing examples. The tutorial continues with a section on negative exponents, demonstrating how to handle them with fractions. Finally, the video addresses exponentiation with decimal numbers, offering detailed explanations and calculations. Throughout the lesson, Agite emphasizes understanding the rules and techniques for efficient problem-solving.

What does the exponent in a fraction indicate?

• The number of times the base is added to itself

• The number of times the base is multiplied by itself

• The number of times the base is divided by itself

• The number of times the base is subtracted from itself

How do you multiply fractions when dealing with exponentiation?
