simplify (xy)/(x^2)

Solution

simplify

\frac{x y}{x ^{2}}

Solution

\frac{y}{x}

Solution steps

\frac{x y}{x ^{2}}

Apply exponent rule:

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

\frac{x ^{1}}{x ^{2}} = \frac{1}{x ^{2 - 1}}

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

Subtract the numbers:

2 - 1 = 1

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

Apply exponent rule:

a^{1} = a

x^{1} = x

= \frac{y}{x}
