Answer:

Explanation:

Any number divided by itself equals 1 with the exception of 0 since 0/0 is undefined.

8^7 is not equal to zero, so without doing any calculations or using any other rules, we know that

8^7/8^7 = 1

We can use the rule of exponents for dividing powers.

Rule:


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

Here we have a = 8, m = 7, and n = 7.

Applying the rule, we get


(8^7)/(a^7) = 8^(7 - 7) = 8^0

Another rule of exponents:


a^0 = 1

We the zero power rule now:


8^0 = 1

Therefore,


(8^7)/(a^7) = 1

Answer:

1

Explanation:

when dividing numbers with exponents with the same base, subtract the exponents.


(8^(7) )/(8^(7) )

7 - 7 = 0


(8^(7) )/(8^(7) ) =
8^(0)

anything to the power of 0 is 1


8^(0)= 1
