Apply the property of negative integer exponents to generate an expression equivalent to 3^-16/8^-14 with positive exponents l only

1 answer

To apply the property of negative integer exponents, we can rewrite the expression as:

(8^(14)/3^(16))

Now, to generate an equivalent expression with positive exponents only, we can simply take the reciprocal of the expression:

(3^(16)/8^(14))

Therefore, an expression equivalent to 3^-16/8^-14 with positive exponents only is 3^(16)/8^(14).
