Question

How do you simplify `(2f^10)/( f^5)` using only positive exponents?

Answer 1

See the entire simplification process below:

Explanation:

Use this rule of exponents to simplify the expression:

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

`(2f^color(red)(10))/(f^color(blue)(5)) = 2f^(color(red)(10)-color(blue)(5)) = 2f^5`
