Simplify 5m^-3n^4

$5 m^{- 3} n^{4}$

Step 1

Rewrite the expression using the negative exponent rule $b^{- n} = \frac{1}{b^{n}}$ .

$5 \frac{1}{m^{3}} n^{4}$

Step 2

Combine $5$ and $\frac{1}{m^{3}}$ .

$\frac{5}{m^{3}} n^{4}$

Step 3

Combine $\frac{5}{m^{3}}$ and $n^{4}$ .

$\frac{5 n^{4}}{m^{3}}$
