Answer 1

I’m missing punctuation/formatting in the expression you posted. Which of these did you mean?

1) (6 a^(−95)) / (a^(−1))
2) (6a) / (95 a^(a−1))

If you meant (1):
(6 a^(−95)) / (a^(−1)) = 6 a^(−95−(−1)) = 6 a^(−94) = 6 / a^94.

If you meant (2):
(6a) / (95 a^(a−1)) = (6/95) a^(1−(a−1)) = (6/95) a^(2−a) = 6 / (95 a^(a−2)) (written with a positive exponent in the denominator).

If neither of these is your expression, please repost it inline (use ^ for exponents), for example (6a)/(95a^(a-1)).
