Write a power represented with a positive base and a positive exponent whose value is less than the base

1 Answer

You have that situation with ANY base that's less than ' 1 '.

Examples:

(0.9)² = 0.81 (90% of the base)

(7/8)² = 0.765625 (87.5% of the base)

(1/2)² = 1/4 (50% of the base)

(0.1)² = 0.01 (10% of the base)

Each of these results is less than the base, and with
higher positive powers, they keep getting smaller.
