Answer 1

Answer:

16 x^14 / y^16

Step-by-step explanation:

Parentheses

Exponents

Division

Multiplication

Addition

Subtraction

 so do the stuff inside the parentheses to get

  y^8     ^-2

  4x^7  

Now do the exponents  ( the -2  one)

y^-16

4^-2 x^-14       then simplify

16 x^14 / y^16
