To simplify 4³/4⁵, we can subtract the exponents because we have the same base.
4³/4⁵ = 4^(3-5) = 4^(-2)
Therefore, the term 4³/4⁵ is equivalent to 4^(-2).
The equivalent terms are:
E. 4^-²
A. 4²
B. 1/16
C. 1/4²
D. -4²
E. 4^-²
4³/4⁵ = 4^(3-5) = 4^(-2)
Therefore, the term 4³/4⁵ is equivalent to 4^(-2).
The equivalent terms are:
E. 4^-²
The expression 4³ can also be written as 4 * 4 * 4, which is equal to 64.
The expression 4⁵ can be written as 4 * 4 * 4 * 4 * 4, which is equal to 1024.
Now, we can rewrite the expression 4³/4⁵ as 64/1024.
To simplify the fraction further, we can divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 32.
64/1024 divided by 32/32 equals 2/32.
Since 2 and 32 have a common factor of 2, we can further simplify the fraction.
2/32 divided by 2/2 equals 1/16.
Therefore, the expression 4³/4⁵ is equivalent to 1/16.
So, the answer is B. 1/16.
Given that the base is 4, we can subtract the exponents:
4³/4⁵ = 4^(3-5) = 4^-2
Therefore, the answer is E. 4^-².
