Question

What is the quotient?

Answer 1

=
`(1)/(5^(9))`

Explanation:

When dividing values with exponents, we simply need to subtract the numerators exponent to the denominators exponent.

So we have:

`(5^(-6))/(5^(3) )`

=
`5^(-6 - 3)`

=
`5^(-9)`

Now since we have a negative exponent, we can get the reciprocal of the value to make it positive.

=
`(1)/(5^(9))`

Answer 2

The answer is 1 / 5^(9)

Explanation:

We just need to divide both numbers and find the result

(5)^-6 / (5)^3

(5)^(-6-(3)) =

(5)^(-9) =

1 / 5^(9) = 5,120 .10^(-7)
