5r%5E3st%5E2%2F-10r%5E6s%5E3t……….reduce the following:
r%5E3%2Fr%5E6+=+r%5E%283-6%29+=r%5E%28-3%29+=+1%2Fr%5E3,
s%2Fs%5E3+=+s%5E%281-3%29+=s%5E%28-2%29+=+1%2Fs%5E2,
and t%5E2%2Ft%5E1+=+t%5E%282-1%29+=t%5E%281%29+=+t+
then you will have:
5t%2F-10r%5E3s%5E2……….now divide both nominator and denominator by 5

%285%2F5%29t%2F%28-10%2F5%29r%5E3s%5E2……….

your answer is:
t%2F-2r%5E3s%5E2……….
