Simplify (x^4/x^2)×(x^8/x^8)

Answer 1

To simplify this expression, we can combine the expressions by multiplying the numerators together and multiplying the denominators together separately.

(x^4/x^2) × (x^8/x^8) = x^(4+8)/x^(2+8)

Simplifying the powers of x, we get:

= x^12/x^10

Since the bases (x) are the same, we can subtract the exponents:

= x^(12-10)

= x^2

Therefore, the simplified expression is x^2.
