Answer:

$\frac{125}{27}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{2^{-4} \times 15^{-3} \times 625}{5^2 \times 10^{-4}}$

Lets expand all the composite numbers into prime numbers.

$=> \frac{2^{-4} \times (3^{-3} \times 5^{-3}) \times 5^4}{5^2 \times (2^{-4} \times 5^{-4})}$

Lets cancel $2^{-4}$ from numerator and denominator.

$=> \frac{3^{-3} \times 5^{-3} \times 5^4}{5^2 \times 5^{-4}}$

Using laws of exponents , lets solve this.

$=> \frac{3^{-3} \times 5^{(-3 + 4)}}{5^{( 2 - 4)}}$

$=> \frac{3^{-3} \times 5^{1}}{5^{-2}}$

$=> 3^{-3} \times 5^{[1 - (-2)]}$

$=> 3^{-3} \times 5^{3}$

$=> \frac{5^3}{3^3} = \frac{125}{27}$
