Answer: 0.01429
Step-by-step explanation:
1.429 x [tex]10^{-2}[/tex]
Now [tex]10^{-2}[/tex] is just 1/100 or 0.01, because 10^2 is 100
Now we can multiply 1.429 by 0.01 which is 1.429 x 0.01
Or the easy way, we can just place the decimal two places to the left because the power is -2, so 2 places to the left. Moving the decimal to the left makes the number smaller.
So, take 1.492 and move its decimal 2 places to the left
We get 0.01429
