I don't know where to start... or what to do, really. You don't have to help me with all of those, I just gave them all to give you an idea of what I was doing.

Here's an example to help you out:

%2828x%5E3y%5E5%29%2F%2814x%5E2y%5E3%29=%2814%2A2x%5E3y%5E5%29%2F%2814x%5E2y%5E3%29=%28cross%2814%29%2A2x%5E3y%5E5%29%2F%28cross%2814%29x%5E2y%5E3%29=2x%5E%283-2%29y%5E%285-3%29=2x%5E1y%5E2=2xy%5E2


So %2828x%5E3y%5E5%29%2F%2814x%5E2y%5E3%29=2xy%5E2


Remember, when you divide variable terms, you're subtracting the exponents.
