Question Number 126206 by amns last updated on 18/Dec/20

If   (n > m),   then (a^m /a^n ) = a^?

$${If}\:\:\:\left({n}\:>\:{m}\right),\: \\ $$ $$\mathrm{then}\:\frac{{a}^{{m}} }{{a}^{{n}} }\:=\:{a}^{?} \\ $$

Is the ans. a^(1/(n − m))    ?

$$\mathrm{Is}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{ans}.\:{a}^{\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{n}\:−\:{m}}} \:\:\:? \\ $$

(a^m /a^n )=a^(m−n)   no matter if m>n or m<n  a^(−k) =(1/a^k ) ⇒ a^(m−n) =(1/a^(n−m) )

$$\frac{{a}^{{m}} }{{a}^{{n}} }={a}^{{m}−{n}} \\ $$ $$\mathrm{no}\:\mathrm{matter}\:\mathrm{if}\:{m}>{n}\:\mathrm{or}\:{m}<{n} \\ $$ $${a}^{−{k}} =\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{a}^{{k}} }\:\Rightarrow\:{a}^{{m}−{n}} =\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{a}^{{n}−{m}} } \\ $$
