To simplify \( 4^{13} \div 3^{-5} \), we first recognize that dividing by a negative exponent can be rewritten as multiplying by a positive exponent.

The expression can be rewritten as:

\[ 4^{13} \div 3^{-5} = 4^{13} \times 3^{5} \]

So, we have:

\[ 4^{13} \times 3^5 \]

Next, we can represent \( 4 \) as \( 2^2 \):

\[ 4^{13} = (2^2)^{13} = 2^{26} \]

Thus, we rewrite the expression as:

\[ 2^{26} \times 3^5 \]

This is the simplified form of the original expression:

\[ \boxed{2^{26} \times 3^5} \]
