Final answer:
The expression 48 divided by (1/2) simplifies to 96 if we only consider the base numbers. In general, to simplify expressions with exponentials, divide the numerals and subtract the exponents.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question involves simplifying the exponential expression 48 divided by (1/2) raised to the power of 249619212. To simplify this, we do not actually need to worry about the large exponent because we can simplify the base numbers first. Dividing 48 by (1/2) is the same as multiplying 48 by 2, which results in 96. After that, this number would theoretically be raised to the large exponent provided, but without context, this seems to be a typo or an irrelevant part of the question.
In general, when dealing with division of exponentials, you divide the digit term of the numerator by the digit term of the denominator and subtract the exponents of the exponential terms. If the original question had been about simplifying an expression like (2.4 × 1013) divided by (8 × 107), for instance, you would subtract the exponent of the denominator from the exponent of the numerator (13 - 7), resulting in (2.4 ÷ 8) × 106, which simplifies to 0.3 × 106 or 3 × 105.
