[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To use the Quotient Rule of Exponents, you subtract the exponent in the denominator from the exponent in the numerator.

In this case, we have 2^8 ÷ 2^4.

Using the Quotient Rule of Exponents, we subtract the exponents and keep the base:

2^8 ÷ 2^4 = 2^(8-4) = 2^4

Therefore, the equivalent form of 2^8 ÷ 2^4 is 2^4.

So, the correct answer is 3. 2^4.
