the answer is less than > because once converted, 3^-1 is 0.333333 and 1/4 is .25 bb ♡
Answer:
>
Step-by-step explanation:
Because since the exponent in negative it becomes a fraction with a one in the numerator.
So when it is 3 to the power of -1
it will become 1/3
The smaller the denominator the bigger the fraction, and 3 is greater than 4.
1/3 > 1/4.
