Full solution

Q. 44) 3h2j0k03hj4k1 \frac{3 h^{2} j^{0} k^{0}}{3 h j^{-4} k^{-1}}
  1. Identify and Apply Exponent Properties: Simplify the expression by identifying and applying the properties of exponents.\newlineWe have the expression (3h2j0k0)/(3hj4k1)(3h^{2}j^{0}k^{0})/(3hj^{-4}k^{-1}). We know that any number raised to the power of 00 is 11, so j0j^{0} and k0k^{0} both equal 11.
  2. Apply Simplification: Apply the simplification from Step 11 to the expression.\newlineThe expression becomes (3h211)/(3h14k1)(3h^{2}\cdot 1\cdot 1)/(3h\cdot 1^{-4}\cdot k^{-1}), which simplifies to (3h2)/(3hk1)(3h^{2})/(3h\cdot k^{-1}).
  3. Simplify Coefficients and Terms: Simplify the coefficients and the hh terms.\newlineWe can cancel out the 33 in the numerator and the denominator, and apply the property ha/hb=h(ab)h^{a}/h^{b} = h^{(a-b)} to the hh terms.\newlineThis gives us h(21)/k(1)h^{(2-1)}/k^{(-1)}, which simplifies to h1/k(1)h^{1}/k^{(-1)}.
  4. Simplify Negative Exponents: Simplify the expression with negative exponents.\newlineWe know that an=1ana^{-n} = \frac{1}{a^n}, so we can rewrite k1k^{-1} as 1k1\frac{1}{k^1}.\newlineThe expression now becomes hk.\frac{h}{k}.
  5. Check for Further Simplifications: Check for any further simplifications. The expression hk\frac{h}{k} is already in its simplest form, so no further simplification is needed.
