Mammoth Memory

Indices law - Law 4

a0=1   

How to remember a0=1  

Anything to the power zero is 1

A number with the power zero is equal to 1

It doesn't matter how many people there are there is only one sun.

The sun is one? 

One sun is one.

 

But why?

Try simple numbers you know first

We know 1010=1 

But so too 102102=1  

But this can be rewritten as  102×10-2  

And rewritten again as 102-2=100

So 100 must be 1
