To evaluate a nonzero number with a negative integer exponent, you can use the rule that states ( a^{-n} = \frac{1}{a^n} ), where ( a ) is the nonzero number and ( n ) is the positive integer. For example, ( 2^{-3} ) can be evaluated as ( \frac{1}{2^3} = \frac{1}{8} ). This method effectively converts the negative exponent into a positive one by taking the reciprocal of the base raised to the corresponding positive exponent.
