Exponents - Division - Positive by Positive to Negative Fraction (Level 1)
This math topic covers the practice of dividing exponents where both the numerator and the denominator are positive, but the result is represented as a negative fraction. Specifically, it looks at expressions of the form \(\frac{n^a}{n^b}\) and asks students to simplify these expressions by subtracting the powers according to the laws of exponents. The problems involve determining the simplified form of such a division, which may end up as a negative power expression, involving various letters as bases like \(n\), \(m\), \(z\), \(p\), \(b\), and \(d\), presented across different individual problems.
