Explanation:

The given expression is :


(a^3b^(-2))/(ab^(-4))

We need to simplify the above expression.

a³ is in numerator and a is in denominator. It gts cancelled.


(a^3b^(-2))/(ab^(-4))=(a* a* a* b* b* b* b)/(a* b * b)\\\\=(a^2* b^(-2)* b^4)/(1)\\\\=(a^2)/(b^(-2))

Hence, this is the required solution.
