This denominator represents discounting for 2 years for 10%.
its 110%*110%, or 1.21
If you have to do this for 3 years, you would have 110% * 110% * 110%, or 1/ (1.1. in the third degree).

As sangria said right, our formula for present value is :
present value=F*1/(1+r)n
Where “F” is the factor , “r” is rate of capital and “n” is the period .
There “n” use as the power of brackets..
