Answer 1

`(8)/(b^(30) )`

Explanation:

Start within the parentheses

1. Divide coefficients

6/3 = 2

2. Divide variables

When dividing exponents with the same base, in this case b, you subtract.

b^20 - b^30 = b^-10

3. Exponent outside parentheses

When there's an exponent on an exponent, you multiply the exponents.

(2b^-10)^3

8 b^-30

4. Simplify?

This step isn't necessary, but when you have a negative exponent on a variable, the variable can be put in the denominator with a positive exponent.

8b^-30 can become 8/b^30
