When an exponent is raised to another exponent, you can multiply the powers to simplify them.
3/8*3/4
<em>*Multiply numerators*</em>
3*3=9
<em>*Multiply denominators*</em>
8*4=32
x^9/32

8.50x+100=308.25
subtract 100 from both sides
8.5x = 208.25
divide 8.5 from both sides
x= 24.5 hours worked
A. He eats 1/8 a pound of candy each day.
B. It would take him a total of 8 days to eat a pound of candy.
A. Since he ate 10 ounces in 5 days, you divide 10 by 5 to find he ate 2 ounces per day. Since there are 16 ounces in a pound that would be your denominator (bottom of fraction) and 2 would be the numerator (top of your fraction). You will get 2/16 which if you simplify (divide by 2) you get 1/8.
B. Knowing that there are 16 ounces per pound and he ate 1/8 pound ( 2/16 pound or 2 ounces) a day, you can either look at the simplified denominator to get the answer, or, divide 16 by 2 to get your answer.

They are multiplicative inverses. For example, the reciprocal of 2/3 is 3/2. They are used when dividing fractions
