Question

Simplify 5 to the negative 4th power over 5 to the 3rd. Group of answer choices 57 5−1 1 over 5 1 over 5 to the 7th power

Answer 1

When you divide exponents, you have to subtract them. So -4-3= -7 as the exponent

When you have a negative exponent, then you have to flip the fraction (all whole numbers are over 1 so flip the 1 to the top and the 5^7 on the bottom)
