Answer:

4y^14

Explanation:

you would look at the equation, and because it seems to be a division problem inside the ( ) then you would find the difference of the exponents. and divide the numbers in front of y. So, it would go from (16y^5/ 4y^3)^12, to (4y^2)^12. Then, you would add the exponents because it is multiplication. So you would get 4y^14.
