= (4x^3y^4)/(-8xy^2)
simplify exponents by subtracting the denominator exponent from numerator exponent [x^(3-1)]

= (4x^3y^4)/(-8xy^2)
simplify -4/8 by 4 into numerator and denominator

= (-1x^2y^2)/2

= (-x^2y^2)/2

ANSWER: (-x^2y^2)/2

Answer: OPTION D: $\frac{3}{32}$

Step-by-step explanation:

By definiton, fractions have the following form:

$\frac{a}{b}$

Where "a" is called numerator and "b" is the denominator. The numerator and the denominator are Integers.

In order to solve this exercise you need to remember de Division of fractions:

$\frac{a}{b}\div\frac{d}{e}=\frac{a}{b}*\frac{e}{d}=\frac{a*e}{b*d}$

In this case, according to the information given in the exercise, you know that $\frac{3}{8}\ lb$ of rubies are divided into 4 lots.

Therefore, in order to calculate the weight in pounds of each lot, you need to divide $\frac{3}{8}\ lb$ by 4.

Then, you get the following result:

$\frac{3}{8}\ lb\div4=(\frac{3}{8}\ lb) (\frac{1}{4})=\frac{3}{8*4}\ lb=\frac{3}{32} \ lb$

As you can notice, this result matches with the Option D.
