Answer:

943 exponent 14

Explanation:

The question deals with indices(exponents). Therefore,all laws of indices related to the question must be applied to clearly solve and understand the question.

so,(943 exponent 78 · 943 exponent 1)/943 exponent 65

· means multiplication so simply,(943 exponent 78 × 943 exponent 1)/943 exponent 65

The laws of indices clearly state that, when two indices of the same base are multiplying, you add their exponents and when dividing,you subtract their exponents.

As all the indices have the same base which is "943", we can quickly add & subtract the exponents.

(Leaving base out of calculation now to make it easier to directly deal with exponents)

(78+1)-65(From the rules)

79-65=14,which means 943 exponent 14

∴The answer is 943 exponent 14
