so now we have solved in small portions .
Now i will show you to write together.
\[\frac{ 4^{-3} }{ 5^3 }*\frac{ 5^4 }{ 3^{-2} }*\frac{ 2^5 }{ 3 }=4^{-3}*5^{-3}*5^4*3^2*2^5*3^{-1}\]
\[=\left( 2^2 \right)^{-3}*2^{5}*5^{-3+4}*3^{2-1}\]
\[=2^{-6+5}*5^1*3^1=2^{-1}*5*3=\frac{ 5*3 }{ 2 }=\frac{ 15 }{ 2 }\]
