For this case we have the following expression:


(s ^ 6) ^ {- 3}

We must indicate which of the expressions is equivalent.

By properties of powers we have that:


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

Thus, the expression can be written as:


\frac {1} {(s ^ 6) ^ 3} =\\\frac {1} {s ^ 6} * \frac {1} {s ^ 6} * \frac {1} {s ^ 6}

Answer:

There are three factors of
(1)/(s^6)
