DETAILED EXPLANATION

Look at a%5E3%2Ahighlight_red%28+b+%29%5Ehighlight_red%28+0+%29%2F%28ab%29%5E-2.
Removing power highlight_red%28+b+%29 to degree of highlight_green%28+0+%29
Look at a%5E3%2Ahighlight_red%28+1+%29%2F%28ab%29%5E-2.
Remove extraneous '1' from product highlight_red%28+1+%29
It becomes a%5E3%2F%28ab%29%5E-2.
Look at a%5E3%2Fhighlight_red%28+%28ab%29%5E-2+%29.
Negative power changes multiplication to division
It becomes a%5E3%2Ahighlight_green%28+%28ab%29%5E2+%29.
Result: a%5E3%2A%28ab%29%5E2
