simplify (b^{-2})/(b^4)

Solution

simplify

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

Solution

\frac{1}{b ^{6}}

Solution steps

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

Apply exponent rule:

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

= b^{- 2 - 4}

Subtract the numbers:

- 2 - 4 = - 6

= b^{- 6}

Apply exponent rule:

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

= \frac{1}{b ^{6}}
