Answer:

A

Explanation:

6 is a power. So both C and D are wrong because 6 is being treated as an ordinary integer.

So the answer must be either A or B.

B is not correct because to move an expression from the denominator to the numerator changes the sign in the base (which is m in this question).

A is correct. the power is changed from 6 in the denominator to -6 in the numerator. m is shifted to the numerator as well.
