Question

Find the value of (-3)^5/(-3)^6

Answer 1

Answer:

$\boxed{ \bold{ \frac{1}{3} }}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\mathsf{ \frac{ { - 3}^{5} }{ { - 3}^{6} } }$

To divide two terms with the same base , the power of divisor is subtracted from the power of the dividend and the same base is taken

⇒$\mathsf{ { - 3}^{5 - 6} }$

⇒$\mathsf{ { - 3}^{ - 1} }$

Applying law of negative index

⇒$\frac{1}{3}$
