x^3y^3/4 / x^2y/5
Multiply NUM and DEN by 20
= 5x%5E3y%5E3%2F4x%5E2y
Cancel x^2
= 5xy%5E3%2F4y
Cancel y
= 5xy%5E2%2F4

%28%28x%5E3y%5E3%29%2F4%29%2F%28%28x%5E2y%29%2F5%29 Start with the given expression.


%28%28x%5E3y%5E3%29%2F4%29%2A%285%2F%28x%5E2y%29%29 Multiply the upper fraction by the reciprocal of the lower fraction.


%285x%5E3y%5E3%29%2F%284x%5E2y%29 Multiply the fractions.


%285x%5E%283-2%29y%5E%283-1%29%29%2F4 Divide the variable terms by subtracting the exponents.


%285x%5E1y%5E2%29%2F4 Subtract.


%285xy%5E2%29%2F4 Simplify.


So %28%28x%5E3y%5E3%29%2F4%29%2F%28%28x%5E2y%29%2F5%29=%285xy%5E2%29%2F4
