Question

How do you write `15^3/15^-4` using only positive exponents?

Answer 1

See entire process described below:

Explanation:

We will use this rule of exponents to complete this problem:

`x^color(red)(a)/x^color(blue)(b) = x^(color(red)(a)-color(blue)(b))`

`15^color(red)(3)/15^color(blue)(-4) = 15^(color(red)(3) - color(blue)(-4)) = 15^7`
