(x^5y^6)/xy^2

1 answer

To simplify this expression, we first divide the coefficients and then divide the variables.

(x^5y^6) / (xy^2)

First, divide the coefficients:

x^5 / x = x^(5-1) = x^4

Next, divide the variables:

y^6 / y^2 = y^(6-2) = y^4

Therefore, the simplified expression is:

x^4y^4
