~\hspace{7em}\textit{negative exponents} \\\\ a^(-n) \implies \cfrac{1}{a^n} ~\hspace{4.5em} a^n\implies \cfrac{1}{a^(-n)} ~\hspace{4.5em} \cfrac{a^n}{a^m}\implies a^na^(-m)\implies a^(n-m) \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \cfrac{a^(-2) b^3}{c^(-4) d^(-1)}\implies \cfrac{b^3 c^4 d^1}{a^2}\implies \cfrac{b^3 c^4 d}{a^2}
