Simplify 10/(10^(-4/5))

$\frac{10}{10^{- \frac{4}{5}}}$

Step 1

Move $10^{- \frac{4}{5}}$ to the numerator using the negative exponent rule $\frac{1}{b^{- n}} = b^{n}$ .

$10 \cdot 10^{\frac{4}{5}}$

Step 2

Multiply $10$ by $10^{\frac{4}{5}}$ by adding the exponents.

Multiply $10$ by $10^{\frac{4}{5}}$ .

Raise $10$ to the power of $1$ .

$10^{1} \cdot 10^{\frac{4}{5}}$

Use the power rule $a^{m} a^{n} = a^{m + n}$ to combine exponents.

$10^{1 + \frac{4}{5}}$

Write $1$ as a fraction with a common denominator.

$10^{\frac{5}{5} + \frac{4}{5}}$

Combine the numerators over the common denominator.

$10^{\frac{5 + 4}{5}}$

Add $5$ and $4$ .

$10^{\frac{9}{5}}$

Step 3

The result can be shown in multiple forms.
