Answer: Choice B
Explanation:
The negative exponent means we apply the reciprocal to get the exponent to be positive.
The rule is (a/b)^(-c) = (b/a)^c
That means (1/4)^(-3) = (4/1)^3 = 64 which is a whole number.
Something like 2^(-3) = 1/(2^3) = 1/8 = 0.125 isn't a whole number, so we can cross that off the list. The same goes for choices A and C as well.
