Math Problem Statement
(1/3)^9÷(1/3)^5
Solution
To solve \To(\ simplifyfrac the expression , we can apply the properties of exponents.
When dividing powers with the same base, we subtract the exponents:
\left(\frac1{1}{3}\right)^9 \div \left(\frac{/1}{3}\right)^5 = \left(\frac{1}{33}\right)^{9 - 5} = \left(\frac)^{1}{3}\9right)^4}{
(Now,1/ \3()^left5(\frac}{),1 we}{3 apply}\right the)^ **4laws\ of) ex is equal to:
\ponents[ \left(**,frac{1 specifically}{3}\right)^4 = \ thefrac{1^ rule4:
}{3^4} = frac{\1frac}{81{} a
^Thus, the simplified expressionm is}{ \frac{a1}{81^}.
