Exponents - Negative Fractional Exponents with Integer Base - Explanation to Answer (Level 2)

This math topic involves practicing with negative fractional exponents that have integer bases. Students are asked to identify what the given expression with a negative fractional exponent equates to. Each problem includes a base raised to a negative fractional power multiplied multiple times, and the students must match this expression with the correct answer option from several choices. The problems cover different integer bases and negative fractional exponents, testing understanding of simplifying such expressions and converting them into their equivalent forms.
