I wish I knew what Shay17 was doing.  Rather just dropping answers (some correct) all over the place.  @Shay17 please read the Code of Conduct and heed its wisdom.

$x^{-1}x^{-7/8}x^{1/8} = x^{-1 - (7/8) + (1/8)} = x^{-(8/8) - (7/8) + (1/8)} = x^{(-8-7+1)/8}$

@Shay17 Please don't ignore the Code of Conduct,  Someone needs to get your attention so you'll change your behavior.

I don't need you telling me what to do @tkhunny and you still keep tagging me :/ stop

tkhunny · Answer

The Code of Conduct SHOULD be telling you what to do.  Have you read it?

hop off

tkhunny · Answer

I'll take that as a "no".  Good day.

$\Large x^{-1}  \times x^{\frac{7}{-8}} \times x^{\frac{1}{8}}$ =$\Large x^{-1-\frac{7}{8} +\frac{1}{8}} = x^{\frac{-7}{4}}$
