Answer:

Option 2

Explanation:

Given :


(xy^(-6) )/(x^(-4)y^(2) )

=============================================================

Applied Rule :


(x^(a) )/(x^(b) ) = x^(a-b)

============================================================

Solving :

⇒ To remove negative exponents, bring to the opposite side (e.g. if in the denominator, bring to the numerator)


(x(x^(4)) )/(y^(2)(y^(6)) )
