What is an expression?

An expression is a way of writing a statement with more than two variables or numbers with operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Example: 2 + 3x + 4y = 7 is an expression.

We have,

-16$x^{8}$ / -8$x^{9}$

= (-16/-8)$x^{8 - 9}$

= 2 $x^{-1}$

= 2/x

Thus,

The final expression of -16$x^{8}$ / -8$x^{9}$ is 2/x.
