1 a. 0.6² = 0.6 × 0.6 = 0.36
1 b. 4² = 4 × 4 = 16
2 a. 0.3¹ = 0.3
2 b. 0.6¹ = 0.6
3 a. (1/10)² = (1/10) × (1/10) = 1/100 = 0.01
3 b. (2/3)² = (2/3) × (2/3) = 4/9 ≈ 0.444
4 a. 0.4³ = 0.4 × 0.4 × 0.4 = 0.16 × 0.4 = 0.064
4 b. 0.8² = 0.8 × 0.8 = 0.64
5 a. 1⁶⁵ = 1 (any power of 1 is 1)
5 b. 5³ = 5 × 5 × 5 = 25 × 5 = 125
6 a. 0.3³ = 0.3 × 0.3 × 0.3 = 0.09 × 0.3 = 0.027
6 b. (1/5)¹ = 1/5 = 0.2
7 a. 3³ = 3 × 3 × 3 = 9 × 3 = 27
7 b. (1/5)³ = (1/5) × (1/5) × (1/5) = 1/125 = 0.008
8 a. 6² = 6 × 6 = 36
8 b. (1/2)³ = (1/2) × (1/2) × (1/2) = 1/8 = 0.125
9 a. (1/5)² = (1/5) × (1/5) = 1/25 = 0.04
9 b. 0.2⁶ = 0.2 × 0.2 × 0.2 × 0.2 × 0.2 × 0.2 = 0.04 × 0.04 × 0.04 = 0.0016 × 0.04 = 0.000064
