Question

Write 3a^2 b^2 c^5 / 8x^4 y^3 z using no denominator

Answer 1

Currently the denominator is
`8x^4y^3z`. If you want to move those up so they sit with the numerator, then what you have to do is make the exponents negative. You make a negative exponent positive by moving it under a 1; undo that process to make the exponents negative. If we do that, then the expression would be
`3a^2b^2c^58 ^(-1) x ^(-4) y ^(-3) z ^(-1)`
