Evaluate the expression 2700 x 3^m for m=-2.

Answer 1

2700 times 3^-2 would mean that 3^-2=1/9 since negative exponents since 3^-2=1/3^2 which is 1/9. Some multiplying a whole number by a fraction reduces it to that fraction which in this case is 1/9, then the number 2700 will be divided into 1/9's which will be 300 because 2700 times 1/9 is the same as 2700/1 times 1/9 which is 2700/9=300 so 300 is the answer.
