Parts
Gap-fill
Ask the student a question, and give any hints about how they should answer this part.
For an insight into negative indices, consider the following table:
index form | {base}3 | {base}2 | {base}1 | {base}0 | {base}−1 | {base}−2 |
result | {base3} | {base2} | {base} | 1 |
Notice each time the power decreases by 1, the result is divided by {base}. Using this idea, and / for division, fill in the rest of the table.
Use this tab to check that this question works as expected.
