Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
First expand the numerator by distributing in the 2 outside the parenthesis to get
[tex]\frac{16x^6y^4}{2x^6y}[/tex] and now, working on one thing at a time, we will divide:
16 x⁶ y⁴
2 x⁶ y
I separated each set of like expressions to make it easier to see. First divide the numbers, 16 by 2:
8 x⁶ y⁴
x⁶ y
the x's cancel out (divide to a 1):
8 y⁴
y
and by the rules for dividing like bases, we will subtract the exponents, lower from upper to get, finally:
8y³
