just checking ...is 7^4/7^2 = to 49... I say yes...?

yes indeed

Thank you...

Yes, you are correct.

To understand why 7^4/7^2 is equal to 49, let's break it down step by step.

When you have the same base number raised to different exponents and you divide them, you can simply subtract the exponents.

So, in this case, we have 7^4/7^2. Applying the rule mentioned above, we can say that 7^4/7^2 is equivalent to 7^(4-2) which simplifies to 7^2.

Now, 7^2 means 7 multiplied by itself, or 7 squared. And 7 squared is equal to 49.

Therefore, 7^4/7^2 is indeed equal to 49.
