\[\frac{ 2 }{ 2 }^{2}_{4}\]
Reduce
when you see the same base to an exponent over a fraction symbol. The exponents can be subtracted. you do the numerator - denominator's exponent keeping the same base.
its the reverse of say\[2^{4}2^{2}\]where you add the exponents
so this is \[2^{2-4}\]

Do you understand
no not really
What don't you understand?
\[2^{2}-^{4}\] that would be -2 and there should be no -
If the exponent is negative, then flip it to the denominator. A negative exponent is equivalent to the inverse of the same number with a positive exponent. http://www.freemathhelp.com/negative-exponents.html
