simplify (a^3)/(a^5)

Solution

simplify

\frac{a ^{3}}{a ^{5}}

Solution

\frac{1}{a ^{2}}

Solution steps

\frac{a ^{3}}{a ^{5}}

Apply exponent rule:

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

= a^{3 - 5}

Subtract the numbers:

3 - 5 = - 2

= a^{- 2}

Apply exponent rule:

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

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