I think you are saying that the problem is to simplify:
.

.
If I have interpreted your problem correctly, here's how you would do it.
.
First apply the power rule of exponents to the numerator. This rule says that when you have an exponent term raised to a power, you multiply the two exponents. (What you really have in the numerator is 2^6 times 2^6 times 2^6 times 2^6 and you can simplify this by adding exponents to get 2^24. This is done easier by just multiplying the exponent 6 times the exponent 4 to get the same answer of 2^24.) So the problem becomes:
.

.
To divide terms with the same base (in this problem the base is 2) you just subtract the exponent in the denominator from the exponent in the numerator to get:
.

.
And after subtracting the exponents you get the answer of:
.

.
This would be answer a in the list of choices you were given.
.
Again, this answer assumes that I interpreted your problem correctly. If I had the problem correct at the start, then the answer I got is the correct one. If I did not start with the correct problem, then you will need to clarify the problem statement and post it again.
.
Hope this helps you understand the problem a little more, and how you can work it to a solution.
