Given the expression: 16t^4 / 8t

In order to divide the two numbers, check for the common variable. Since both share the common variable t, then it can be divided. Note that in dividing variables with an exponent, we apply the rules of exponent concerning division : (a^n/b^n) = n-n. This means that when we divide two common variables with an exponent, simply subtract their exponents.

Solution:

= 16t^4/8t

=2t^3
