what is an equivalent form of 2^8 divided by 2^4

Answer 1

To simplify \( \frac{2^8}{2^4} \), you can use the property of exponents that states \( \frac{a^m}{a^n} = a^{m-n} \).

Applying this property:

\[ \frac{2^8}{2^4} = 2^{8-4} = 2^4 \]

So, the equivalent form of \( \frac{2^8}{2^4} \) is \( 2^4 \).
