Question

What is the quotient of -8a^8b^-2/10a^-4b^-10 in simplified form? Assume a=0 b=0

Answer 1

Are you sure that both a and b are zero?
I doubt it.

-8a^8b^-2/10a^-4b^-10
should surely be written as a fraction for clarity:

-8a^8b^-2
-----------------          (at least this is how I interpret your question)
10a^-4b^-10

-8a^8 divided by 10a^(-4) comes out to (-8/10)a^12, and

b^(-2) divided by b^(-10) comes out to b^8

so that your final quotient is (-4/5)(a^12)(b^8).
