5 to the power of minus 5 is equal to 1 divided by 5 to the power of 5. This simplifies to 1/ (5 x 5 x 5 x 5 x 5), which equals 1/3125 or 0.00032. This is because any number raised to a negative exponent is equal to 1 divided by that number raised to the positive exponent.

Oh, what a happy little question! When we have 5 to the power of minus 5, it means we take the number 5 and raise it to the power of negative 5. This would be equal to 1 divided by 5 to the power of 5, which simplifies to 1/3125. It's like a tiny, delicate flower blooming in a vast mathematical garden.
