To simplify the expression \(\frac{t^{400}}{t^{100}}\) using the Quotient Rule of Integer Exponents, we use the rule which states:

\[ \frac{a^m}{a^n} = a^{m-n} \]

In this case, \(a = t\), \(m = 400\), and \(n = 100\). Applying the Quotient Rule:

\[ \frac{t^{400}}{t^{100}} = t^{400-100} = t^{300} \]

So, the simplified expression is:

\[ \boxed{t^{300}} \]

Simplify a^67 over b^34.
ab^33
a^67 over b^34
23
a^33

To simplify the expression \(\frac{a^{67}}{b^{34}}\), we can write it as it is since it cannot be simplified further without additional context or values. Therefore, the expression remains:

\[ \frac{a^{67}}{b^{34}} \]

From the options given, the correct answer is:

\[ \boxed{\frac{a^{67}}{b^{34}}} \]

Apply the Quotient Rule of Integer Exponents to simplify 23^65 divided by 23^32.

1^33
23^97
23^33

To simplify the expression \(\frac{23^{65}}{23^{32}}\) using the Quotient Rule of Integer Exponents, we apply the rule:

\[ \frac{a^m}{a^n} = a^{m-n} \]

Here, \(a = 23\), \(m = 65\), and \(n = 32\).

Applying the Quotient Rule:

\[ \frac{23^{65}}{23^{32}} = 23^{65-32} = 23^{33} \]

So, the simplified expression is:

\[ \boxed{23^{33}} \]

Simplify this expression using the Quotient Rule of Integer Exponents: 12^53 divided by 7^53.
5^106
5^53
12^106
12^53 divided by 7^53

To simplify the expression \(\frac{12^{53}}{7^{53}}\) using the properties of exponents, we apply the rule that states \(\frac{a^m}{b^m} = \left(\frac{a}{b}\right)^m\).

Here, we can see that both the numerator and the denominator have the same exponent of 53:

\[ \frac{12^{53}}{7^{53}} = \left(\frac{12}{7}\right)^{53} \]

Thus, the simplified expression is:

\[ \left(\frac{12}{7}\right)^{53} \]

However, since none of the consequences provided in your options match this expression exactly, the best choice available is:

\[ \boxed{12^{53} \text{ divided by } 7^{53}} \]

This means the original expression cannot be simplified further without numerical approximation or alternative forms, so it remains as is in the context of the provided options.

Which are the correct steps to follow to simplify an exponential expression using the Quotient Rule of Integer Exponents?
