Answer:
4m^(6)

Explanation:


(8.4m^(9) n^(5) )/(2.1m^(3)n^(5))

Dividing exponents is the same as subtracting the exponents, so


(m^(9))/(m^(3)) =m^(9-3)=m^(6)


(n^(5))/(n^(5)) =n^(5-5)=n^(0)=1

So now our equation looks like


(8.4m^(6))/(2.1)

Now we can divide the numbers

8.4/2.1 = 4

So your final answer is
4m^(6)
