Given:


(-324m)/(9m^4)

To solve this division, divide 324 by 9 and m by m⁴.

To divide m by m⁴, use the definition below:


(a^n)/(a^m)=a^(n-m)

Then,


\begin{gathered} (-324m)/(9m^4)=-36m^(1-4) \\ =-36m^(-3) \end{gathered}

Using the definition:


a*b^(-n)=(a)/(b^n)

Then,


-(36)/(m^3)

Answer:


-(36)/(m^3)
