I need to divide:
:
10s^3 t^5 * 3s^3 t^5/3s^3 t^3
:
Assume you mean
:
10s^3 * t^5 * 3s^3 * t^5
------------------------
3s^3 * t^3
:
Notice that you have 3s^3 in the numerator and denominator, it becomes a 1, you end up with:
:
10s^3 * t^5 *t^5
----------------
t^3
:
t^5 * t^5 becomes t^10; you add exponents when you mult
:
10s^3 * t^10
------------
t^3
:
t^3 divides into t^10 & becomes t^7; Subtract exponents when you divide
:
10s^3 * t^7; is the simplified expression
