Simplify (16y^8)/(4y^2)

$\frac{16 y^{8}}{4 y^{2}}$

Step 1

Cancel the common factor of $16$ and $4$ .

Factor $4$ out of $16 y^{8}$ .

$\frac{4 (4 y^{8})}{4 y^{2}}$

Cancel the common factors.

Factor $4$ out of $4 y^{2}$ .

$\frac{4 (4 y^{8})}{4 (y^{2})}$

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{4 (4 y^{8})}{4 y^{2}}$

Rewrite the expression.

$\frac{4 y^{8}}{y^{2}}$

$\frac{4 y^{8}}{y^{2}}$

$\frac{4 y^{8}}{y^{2}}$

Step 2

Cancel the common factor of $y^{8}$ and $y^{2}$ .

Factor $y^{2}$ out of $4 y^{8}$ .

$\frac{y^{2} (4 y^{6})}{y^{2}}$

Cancel the common factors.

Multiply by $1$ .

$\frac{y^{2} (4 y^{6})}{y^{2} \cdot 1}$

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{y^{2} (4 y^{6})}{y^{2} \cdot 1}$

Rewrite the expression.

$\frac{4 y^{6}}{1}$

Divide $4 y^{6}$ by $1$ .

$4 y^{6}$

$4 y^{6}$

$4 y^{6}$
