To simplify \( \frac{12^{87}}{12^{25}} \), you can use the properties of exponents, specifically the law that states \( \frac{a^m}{a^n} = a^{m-n} \).
Applying this law:
\[
\frac{12^{87}}{12^{25}} = 12^{87 - 25} = 12^{62}
\]
Thus, the simplified form is:
\[
12^{62}
\]
Applying this law:
\[
\frac{12^{87}}{12^{25}} = 12^{87 - 25} = 12^{62}
\]
Thus, the simplified form is:
\[
12^{62}
\]
