Where?

OpenStudy (seascorpion1):

You know how to do this!!!

OpenStudy (horsegal244):

I do know how its just i have a really hard time with math....

OpenStudy (horsegal244):

@seascorpion1

OpenStudy (seascorpion1):

1/x=x^-1 so in your case: x=3^5 *4^-2

OpenStudy (horsegal244):

ok so in fraction for it would be?

OpenStudy (seascorpion1):

No, in your case the numerator is 4^-3*4^2*3^4.

OpenStudy (horsegal244):

i dont get it... Im sorry

hartnn (hartnn):

Let me give a shot in explaining, your problem can be divided into 2 independent problems, one with base as 3 and one with base as 4, \(\Large \dfrac{4^{-3}4^2 }{4^{-2}}\) \(\Large \dfrac{3^4}{3^5}\) one of the rules you'll be using is \(\Large x^{-n} = \dfrac{1}{x^n}\) do you know about it already? used it before?

OpenStudy (horsegal244):

I have not used that before what is \[^{-n}\]

OpenStudy (horsegal244):

the x thing

OpenStudy (seascorpion1):

also use that: \[\frac{a^m}{a^n}=a^{m-n}\]

Hope your ok with this, I'll check back in an hour.
