The expression \((a/b)^m\) can be simplified using the property of exponents. Specifically:
\[
\left(\frac{a}{b}\right)^m = \frac{a^m}{b^m}
\]
Therefore, the correct answer is:
**B. \(\frac{a^m}{b^m}\)**
\[
\left(\frac{a}{b}\right)^m = \frac{a^m}{b^m}
\]
Therefore, the correct answer is:
**B. \(\frac{a^m}{b^m}\)**
