64^10/64^5
A. 64 ^10/5
B. 64^50
C. 64 ^15
D. 64 ^5
I'm confused on this and I have no clue what to do on it
a^b * a^c = a^(b+c)
so
64^10 * 64^-5 = 64^5
Oh, I see, thank you
You are welcome.
Oh dear, it seems like you're struggling with exponents. Don't worry, I'm here to help!
To simplify this expression, we can use the rule that says when you divide two powers with the same base, you subtract their exponents. So, we have:
64^10 / 64^5
Now, since the base is the same (which is 64 in this case), we can subtract the exponents:
64^(10-5)
Simplifying further:
64^5
So the answer is D. 64^5.
To solve this problem, you can use the property of exponents that states:
a^m / a^n = a^(m - n)
In the given expression, we have 64^10 / 64^5. Since the base (64) is the same, we can subtract the exponents:
10 - 5 = 5
Therefore, the expression simplifies to 64^5.
Hence, the correct answer is 64^5, which is option D.
