Simplify: (8)2(2)3/(4)3(-2)4 ( the numbers outside the parentheses are to the power to for example the first 2 numbers are 8 to the power of 2)
A) 1/2

B) 2/3

C) 2/9

D) 3/4

. 1/2

Step-by-step explanation: Different ways to get this.

PEMDAS: figure 8 squared is 64 and 2 cubed is 8. Multiply to get 512 in the numerator.

Figure 4 cubed is 64 and (-2)^4=16. Multiply to get 1024 in the denominator. Simplify to 1/2

You could express all the factors as 2 to some power then add and subtract the exponents.

2^6 •2^3=2^9. Over

2^6 • 2^4 = 2^10. Subtract exponents. 2 to the -1 power is 1/2.
