Given:
6^5 / 6^3
Solution:
In order to divide a number with exponent, we apply the laws of exponent for division.
The laws of exponent for division can be represented as;
a^n/b^n = n-n
It states that when dividing numbers that have exponent, we subtract the exponents of the number
6^5 / 6^3
= 6^5-3
= 6^2
= 36
