3

What is \( \frac{-9a^9}{8a^4} \)?

60% Answer Correctly
-1\(\frac{1}{8}\)a5
-1\(\frac{1}{8}\)a36
-\(\frac{8}{9}\)a13
-\(\frac{8}{9}\)a5

Solution

To divide terms with exponents, the base of both exponents must be the same. In this case they are so divide the coefficients and subtract the exponents:

\( \frac{-9a^9}{8a^4} \)
\( \frac{-9}{8} \) a(9 - 4)
-1\(\frac{1}{8}\)a5
