simplify (5b^{-2})/(b^{-3)}

Solution

simplify

\frac{5 b ^{- 2}}{b ^{- 3}}

Solution

5 b

Solution steps

\frac{5 b ^{- 2}}{b ^{- 3}}

Apply exponent rule:

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

\frac{b ^{- 2}}{b ^{- 3}} = b^{- 2 - (- 3)}

= 5 b^{- 2 - (- 3)}

- 2 - (- 3) = 1

= 5 b^{1}

Apply exponent rule:

a^{1} = a

b^{1} = b

= 5 b
