Answer: 50

Step-by-step explanation:

What we know:

  • The numerator is 6
  • The denominator is equal to (3*5)^(-2)
  • In fraction-style equations, the numerators are divided by denominators
  • Negative exponents are equal to (base)^|power|, and then reversing the products place in the fraction

How to solve:

By utilizing our knowledge of the PEMDAS solving method, negative powers, and fraction-style equations, this problem can be solved with a simple step-by-step procedure

Process:

Exponent

Set up equation 6 / [3 * 5^(-2)]

Rewrite power 6 / [3 * (5 * 5)]

Simplify power 6 / [3 * (25)]

Invert power 6(25) / 3

Simplifying

Set up equation 6(25) / 3

Simplify 150 / 3

Simplify (using common denominator) 50 / 1

Rewrite in simplest form =50
