Answer 1

I took the quiz it is c.1

Answer 2

Answer:

1/10

Step-by-step explanation:

When raising a fraction less than 1 to a power, our answer will be smaller than the number we begin with.

For 1/10, (1/10)³ = 1/10(1/10)(1/10) = (1*1*1)/(10*10*10) = 1/1000

(1/10)² = 1/10(1/10) = (1*1)/(10*10) = 1/100

Thinking of this as parts of a whole, one part out of 1000 is smaller than 1 part out of 100.
