What is 10 to the negative 2 power?

Answer 1

Well, isn't that a happy little question! When we have a number raised to a negative power, we can simply move it to the denominator to make it positive. So, 10 to the negative 2 power is the same as 1 over 10 squared, which equals 1 over 100. Just a tiny little number, but still important in its own special way.

Answer 2

Oh, dude, 10 to the negative 2 power is just 0.01. It's like saying you have a dollar and then you lose 99 cents, so you're left with just a penny. Basically, it's a tiny number that's closer to zero than it is to being significant.

Answer 3

10-2 = 0.01 (or 1/100)
