One nice thing about this situation is that you’ve been given everything in the same base. To review a little on the laws of exponents, when you have two exponents with the same base being:
– Multiplied: Add their exponents
– Divided: Subtract their exponents
We can see that in both the numerator and denominator we have exponents *multiplied* together, and the product in the numerator is being *divided* by the product in the detonator, so that translates to *summing the exponents on the top and bottom and then finding their difference*. Let’s throw away the twos for a moment and just focus on the exponents. We have
[11/2 + (-7) + (-5)] - [3 + 1/2 + (-10)]
For convenience’s sake, I’m going to turn 11/2 into the mixed number 5 1/2. Summing the terms in the first brackets gives us
5 1/2 + (-7) + (-5) = - 1 1/2 + (-5) = -6 1/2
And summing the terms in the second:
3 + 1/2 + (-10) = 3 1/2 + (-10) = -6 1/2
Putting those both into our first question gives us -6 1/2 - (-6 1/2), which is 0, since any number minus itself gives us 0.
Now we can bring the 2 back into the mix. The 0 we found is the exponent the 2 is being raised to, so our answer is
2^0, which is just 1.
So first what you want to do is take 98 and subtract it by 48. Which gives us 50. Now what we do is that since we are finding two numbers we would have to divide that by half, which would give us 25. Both of them are now equal. To find the number that makes that difference, we need to add 48 to one of the 25 values. Which would be 73. Meaning that the two numbers are 73 and 25. They both add up to 98 and 73 has a difference of 48 from 25.

Answer:
1/25
Step-by-step explanation:
= 5^4/5^6
= 1/5^6-4
= 1/5^2
= 1/25
hope it helps!
I think the answer is 10, 20, and 4
