Explanation:

Given,


x = {3}^(m)


y = {3}^(n)

Now

Consider


{3}^(4m - 1)

We know that


\frac{ {a}^(p) }{ {a}^(q) } = {a}^(p- q)

Using this we can write


{3}^(4m - 1) = \frac{ {3}^(4m) }{ {3}^(1) }


= \frac{ {3}^(4m) }{3}

We know that


({a}^(p)) ^(q) = {a}^(pq)

Using this we get


\frac{ {3}^(4m) }{3} = \frac{ ({3}^(m))^(4) }{3}

Since we know that


{3}^(m) =x

We get


= \frac{ {x}^(4) }{3}
