Exponents - Division - Negative by Negative to Positive (Level 2)

This math topic focuses on practicing division of exponents, particularly when both the numerator and the denominator have negative exponents. The objective is to simplify expressions where negative exponents lead to positive results due to the division rules of exponents. Each question presents a division of terms with negative exponents and multiple choice answers to select from, reinforcing the understanding of rules for dividing exponents. It is designed to enhance students' skills in manipulating exponential terms and understanding how negative exponents work during division.
