Question

4 to the 3 power, x 4 to the 4th power, divide by 4 to the 9th power

Answer 1

We can simplify the expression as follows:

4^3 * 4^4 / 4^9

First, we can simplify the terms in the numerator by adding the exponents of 4:

4^3 * 4^4 = 4^(3+4) = 4^7

Now, we can substitute this value in the expression:

4^7 / 4^9

To divide powers with the same base, we can subtract their exponents:

4^(7-9) = 4^(-2)

Therefore, the simplified expression is:

4^3 * 4^4 / 4^9 = 4^(-2)

So, the final answer is 1/16 or 0.0625.
