Question

The value of [3–1 × 4–1]2 is ______.

Fill in the Blanks

Solution

The value of [3–1 × 4–1]2 is `underlinebb(1/144)`.

Explanation:

Using law of exponents, `a^-m = 1/a^m`  ...[∵ a is non-zero integer]

∴ `[3^-1 xx 4^-1]^2 = (1/3 xx 1/4)^2`

= `(1/12)^2`

= 12–2

= `1/144`

Hence, `[3^-1 xx 4^-1]^2 = 1/144`
