If I am reading the problem correctly, here is the answer;

First multiply the power of 4 and the power of 3, a negative exponent turns integers into fractions;

since the bases are the same we can add the exponents;

You subtract exponents when the bases are the same and they are being divided, so we subtract 18-5;
