Answer:

The answer is


{p}^( - m - n)

Explanation:


\frac{ {p}^( - m) }{ {p}^(n) }

Using the rules of indices.

Since the bases are the same and are dividing we subtract the exponents

That's


\frac{ {x}^(y) }{ {x}^(z) } = {x}^(y - z)

So from the question we have


\frac{ {p}^( - m) }{ {p}^(n) } = {p}^( - m - n)

Hope this helps you
