Question 63030: to divide monomials and simplify expressions with negative exponents
(9ab^-2)^-2/(8a^-2b)^-2*(3a^-2b)^3/(2a^2b^-2)^3

Keep in mind that all numbers (without a shown exponent) have an understood exponent of 1
power to power rule:
If it has a negative exponent ... move to the other side of the fraction and make the exponent positive.
Combine like terms by adding the exponents of the like variables
Work the numbers
You can multiply and then reduce ... I prefer to reduce first
Multiply
