Answer:


10^(11)

Explanation:

A statement is given i.e. "ten to the eighth divided by ten to the negative third."

It means that 10 to power 8 divided by 10 to the power -3.

Mathematically,


(10^8)/(10^(-3))

We know that,
(x^a)/(x^b)=x^(a-b)

Here, x = 10, a = 8 and b = -3

So,


(10^8)/(10^(-3))=10^(8-(-3))\\\\=10^(8+3)\\\\=10^(11)

So, the answer is
10^(11)
