Question

by what number (17)power-2
be multiplied so that the
product is (17)power 17​

Answer 1

Answer:

17^-2  should be multiplied with 17^19 so that the  product is 17^17

Step-by-step explanation:

before this we need to have a preacquired knowledge:

• a^m/a^n=a^m-n

• a-(-b)=a+b
• a  * b  =  c  , then b  =  c/a

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

now ,

according to the question,

lets say the unknown number be x

so, the equation will be

17^-2  *   x    =  17^17

x    =    17^17  /  17^-2

x    =    17 ^(17-(-2))

x    =    17^(17+2)

x    =    17^19

so the required no. is 17 ^ 19

now we can say that

17^-2  should be multiplied with 17^19 so that the  product is 17^17

Answer 2

17^-2*x=17^17

x=17^17÷17^-2

x=17^19
