To simplify the expression \( K^{-3} / K^{-5} \), you can use the quotient rule for exponents, which states that when you divide two expressions with the same base, you subtract the exponents.
Using the rule:
\[
\frac{K^{-3}}{K^{-5}} = K^{-3 - (-5)} = K^{-3 + 5} = K^{2}
\]
So, the simplified expression is:
\[
K^{2}
\]
Using the rule:
\[
\frac{K^{-3}}{K^{-5}} = K^{-3 - (-5)} = K^{-3 + 5} = K^{2}
\]
So, the simplified expression is:
\[
K^{2}
\]
