Hi I am having a heck of a time trying to find this answer. 3(n^-2)3

Is the expression as follows?

. . . . .\(\displaystyle 3\left(n^{-2}\right)^3\)

I thought it would be 3n^​-6

What do you think the "correct" answer is? Thank you!

Are there any stipulations about what form to leave your answer in? Such as: no negative exponents???

Why do you think your answer is wrong?
