Solution

simplify

\frac{2 ^{- 1}}{2 ^{4}}

Solution

\frac{1}{32}

+1

Solution steps

\frac{2 ^{- 1}}{2 ^{4}}

Apply exponent rule:

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

= 2^{- 1 - 4}

Subtract the numbers:

- 1 - 4 = - 5

= 2^{- 5}

Apply exponent rule:

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

= \frac{1}{2 ^{5}}

2^{5} = 32

= \frac{1}{32}
