Remember any number expressed as a decimal is a fraction of some whole number, or less than one. For example .1 is 1/10, .01 is 1/100, .001 is 1/1000, and so on. So .00001 would equal 1/100,000, or 1/105.

To express numbers less than one, negative exponents are used. The number is better expressed like this: 10-5.
