ok

Remember that when you have to values with the same base, and you divide them, it's equivalent to subtracting the exponents. First, we can break it up like this:
\[\frac{ x^2 y^{-3} z^3 }{ x^4 y^2 z^4 }=\frac{ x^2 }{ x^4 } + \frac{ y^{-3} }{ y^2 } + \frac{ z^3 }{ z^4 }\]

Sorry those plus signs should be multiplication signs between the fractions
OpenStudy (anonymous):
But now, you can go piece by piece, remembering that dividing can be done by subtracting the exponents

look at the file

so whats the answer @vinnv226
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Go piece by piece. I'll show you how to do the x piece. Since we have the same base we can subtract the exponents:
\[\frac{ x^2 }{ x^4 } = x^{2-4}=x^{-2}\] Now do the same thing with the other pieces

y^-1 z^-1?? @vinnv226
OpenStudy (anonymous):
The z piece is right but the y piece isn't. It should be y^(-3 -2)=?
