Answer: 7/5m
Step-by-step explanation:
The initial value of the painting = m
Increase in the painting = 2/5
The final value of the painting will be the addition of the initial value of the painting and the increase. This will be:
= m + (2/5 × m)
= m + 2/5m
= 5/5m + 2/5m
= 7/5m
I assume you mean:
[x^(5/6)]/[x^(1/6)]
The rule for dividing similar bases with different exponents is:
(a^b)/(a^c)=a^(b-c)
In this case we have:
x^(5/6-1/6)
x^(4/6)
x^(2/3)
x over 5 becuase the top and bottom are both divisible by 8 so you do that.
