We have the following fractional expression:


12

-------- is the same as

12^3


12^1

-------

12^3

We want to simplify this expression. To do so, we need the formula for exponents as follows:

x^a / x^b = x^(a-b).

In this particular problem we have

12^1 / 12^3, and know by this formula that the correct result is 12^(1-3), or 12^(-2), which is equivalent to 1 / 144.
