Answer:
Answer: 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
As you may know, [tex]2^{3}[/tex] =8 because it is simply 2 x 2 x 2.
Now, [tex]2^{-5}[/tex] is the same as [tex]\frac{1}{2} ^{5}[/tex] because you flip the negative as a reciprocal.
This should give you: [tex]2^{-5}[/tex] = 1/32 or 0.03125.
Now, 0.03125 x 8 will give you 0.25.
0.25 = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
