(2^7*2^8)/2^3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So far I have \[\frac{ 2^{7}*2^{8} }{ 2^{3}}\] \[2^{7}*2^{8} \rightarrow 2^{15}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ 2^{15} }{2^{3} }\]

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Correct. You used this rule in the numerator. \( a ^m \times a^n = a^{m + n} \).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[2^{15-3}=2\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry 2^12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is that correct?

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Now you need this rule for the fraction: \(\dfrac{a^m}{a^n} = a^{m - n} \)

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

2^12. You are correct.

Thanks!
