simplify (y^2)/(y^4)

Solution

simplify

\frac{y ^{2}}{y ^{4}}

Solution

\frac{1}{y ^{2}}

Solution steps

\frac{y ^{2}}{y ^{4}}

Apply exponent rule:

\frac{x ^{a}}{x ^{b}} = x^{a - b}

= y^{2 - 4}

Subtract the numbers:

2 - 4 = - 2

= y^{- 2}

Apply exponent rule:

a^{- b} = \frac{1}{a ^{b}}

= \frac{1}{y ^{2}}
