Simplifying Exponents
To solve this, we should first recall the Power of a Power rule for exponents.
According to this rule, when we have a power raised to another power, we multiply the exponents together. So, we'll multiply four and negative five.
Four times negative five equals negative twenty. This gives us six to the power of negative twenty.
