Reference
> Algebra: Exponents
Description
The Division Distributive Property states that:
\({(\frac{x}{y})}^{a}=\frac{{x}^{a}}{{y}^{a}}\)
Examples
\[{(\frac{x}{5})}^{2}\]
1
Use
Division Distributive Property
: \({(\frac{x}{y})}^{a}=\frac{{x}^{a}}{{y}^{a}}\).
\[\frac{{x}^{2}}{{5}^{2}}\]
2
Simplify \({5}^{2}\) to \(25\).
\[\frac{{x}^{2}}{25}\]
Done
x^2/25
