Answer:

The value of the quotient is
-(m^(12)n^(6))/(2).

Explanation:

The given expression is,


(2m^9n^4)/(-4m^(-3)n^(-2))

We have to find the quotient of the given expression.

Use the exponent rule,


(a^n)/(a^m) =a^(n-m)


(2m^9n^4)/(-4m^(-3)n^(-2))=-(m^(9-(-3))n^(4-(-2)))/(2)


(2m^9n^4)/(-4m^(-3)n^(-2))=-(m^(9+3)n^(4+2))/(2)


(2m^9n^4)/(-4m^(-3)n^(-2))=-(m^(12)n^(6))/(2)

Therefore the value of the quotient is
-(m^(12)n^(6))/(2).
