------------------
That's not an equation. I can tell, there's no equal sign.
So there's nothing to be solved.

Write it like this:
21x^4/9x^11
It can be reduced, or simplified.
= 3%2A7x%5E4%2F%283%2A3%2Ax%5E4%2Ax%5E7%29
Cancel the 3's
= 7x%5E4%2F%283%2Ax%5E4%2Ax%5E7%29
Cancel x^4
= 7%2F%283x%5E7%29
