Divide and simplify
6^6/6^3
Would the answer be 216 or 6^3?
yup
i think its 216
Is there a reason that the answer wouldn't just be 6^3? The instructions say to type the exponential notation with positive exponents.
6^3 is perfectly correct.
To divide and simplify the expression 6^6 / 6^3, you can use the rule of exponents which states that when dividing two numbers with the same base, you subtract the exponents.
In this case, both numbers have a base of 6, so you can subtract the exponents: 6^6 / 6^3 = 6^(6-3) = 6^3.
Therefore, the simplified answer is 6^3.
