Identify and Apply Exponent Properties: Simplify the expression by identifying and applying the properties of exponents.We have the expression (3h2j0k0)/(3hj−4k−1). We know that any number raised to the power of 0 is 1, so j0 and k0 both equal 1.
Apply Simplification: Apply the simplification from Step 1 to the expression.The expression becomes (3h2⋅1⋅1)/(3h⋅1−4⋅k−1), which simplifies to (3h2)/(3h⋅k−1).
Simplify Coefficients and Terms: Simplify the coefficients and the h terms.We can cancel out the 3 in the numerator and the denominator, and apply the property ha/hb=h(a−b) to the h terms.This gives us h(2−1)/k(−1), which simplifies to h1/k(−1).
Simplify Negative Exponents: Simplify the expression with negative exponents.We know that a−n=an1, so we can rewrite k−1 as k11.The expression now becomes kh.
Check for Further Simplifications: Check for any further simplifications. The expression kh is already in its simplest form, so no further simplification is needed.
