Question

What is the value of 4^6/4^8A. 1/1024B. 1/256C. 1/64D. 1/16​

Answer 1

Answer:

1/16

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a^b / a^c = a^(b-c)

4^6/4^8

4^(6-8)

4^-2

We know that a^-b = 1/a^b

1/4^2

1/16

Answer 2

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rule of exponents

$\frac{a^{m} }{a^{n} }$ with n > m

= $\frac{1}{a^{(n-m)} }$ , then

$\frac{4^{6} }{4^{8} }$

= $\frac{1}{4^{(8-6)} }$

= $\frac{1}{4^{2} }$

= $\frac{1}{16}$ → D
