Give me some time to type out the expression, thanks.

jamierox4ev3r · Answer

$$\left( \frac{ 3x ^{\frac{ 3 }{ 2 }}y ^{3} }{ x ^{2} y ^{-\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }}} \right)^{-2}$$

oh my goodness that was a heck of an expression to get out. 

So far, what I've done is this:

$$\left( \frac{ x ^{2}y ^{-\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }} }{ 3x ^{\frac{ 3 }{ 2 }} y ^{3}} \right)^{2}$$

basically, I got ride of the negative 2 exponent by flipping the fraction around. If this was an incorrect thing to do, someone let me know now. My recollection of algebra rules is a bit foggy
