Math Problem Statement

(1/3)^9÷(1/3)^5

Solution

To solve \To(\ simplifyfrac the expression (13)9÷({frac13)(5\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^9 \div \left(\{frac{1}{3}\right)^(5, 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:

^Thus, the simplified expressionm is}{ \frac{a1}{81^}.

Tip:1 Always remember/ that when dividing powers with the same3 base, you subtract the ex)^ponents.9}{(1/3)^5} = (1/3)^{9-5} = (1/3)^4. ]

Step 2: Simplify the power

(1/3)4=134.(1/3)^4 = \frac{1}{3^4}.

Step 3: Evaluate 343^4

34=3×3×3×3=81.3^4 = 3 \times 3 \times 3 \times 3 = 81.

Final Answer:

(1/3)9(1/3)5=181.\frac{(1/3)^9}{(1/3)^5} = \frac{1}{81}.
