Identify Operation: Identify the operation to be applied with the exponents.When dividing powers with the same base, subtract the exponents.
Apply Exponent Rule: Apply the exponent subtraction rule to simplify the expression. z37z34=z(34−37)=z−33
Simplify Expression: Simplify the exponent. z(−3/3)=z(−1)
Convert Negative Exponent: Convert the negative exponent to a positive exponent by taking the reciprocal. z−1=z1
