Final answer:

The solution involves following steps of inverting a negative exponent, multiplying coefficients and variables, and then subtracting the exponents of like variables. Unfortunately, the question contains typos or errors that prevent providing a complete solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question requires simplifying a complex algebraic expression by applying rules of exponents and division. We are given the expression (1/x-5y4)-2 × 14x4y3 divided by 7x6y8. When dividing expressions with exponents, we subtract the exponents of like bases. The steps to simplify the expression are as follows:

  1. Invert the exponent by changing the negative exponent to positive and switch numerator with the denominator.
  2. Multiply the coefficients (numerical terms) and the variables separately.
  3. Subtract the exponents of like variables when dividing.

However, due to the inconsistencies and fragmentation in the question provided, a clear step-by-step solution cannot be given without the correct expression being fully and accurately stated.
