We are asked in this problem to determine the simplified expression of the statement given. The rules that apply in exponential functions is that when an exponential term is raised to the power of an integer, the simplified term has a degree that is equal to the product of the integers involved. The operations involved should be applicable to terms with the same base number only. In this problem, we thus write:
2^3/4 / 2^1/2 = 2^3/4 * 2^-1/2 = = 2^(3/4 - 1/2) = 2^ 1/4. hence the answer is 2^0.25 or simply equal to 1.1892 determined using a calculator.
In this question there is nothing complicated. Only thing is to know the way fractions can be divided. Once that is known the problem would be one of the easiest to solve. Now let us get back to the problem and look at all the information's that are given in the question.
Divide 7/15 by 3/5 = (7/15)/(3/5)
= (7 * 5)/(15 * 3)
= (35/45)
Dividing the numerator and the denominator by 5 for simplifying purpose, we get
= 7/9
So from the above deduction we can easily conclude that 7/9 is the correct answer and option "B" is the correct option among all the options given in the question.
