m2/5/ m-8/5
Well, let's simplify.
When there dividing numbers with the same base but with different exponents, we subtract the second exponent from the first exponent.
(m^2/5) / (m^(-8/5))
Subtract the exponents. 2/5 - (-8/5)
That would be 2/5 + 8/5, which equals to 10/5.
10/5 is 2. So the exponent would be 2.
Our final answer would be m^2
