Simplify exponential expressions using the multiplication rule

Full solution

Q. Simplify. Express your answer using positive exponents.

\newline

\frac{4c}{c^2}

Write Expression: Write down the expression to be simplified. $\newline$ We have the expression $\frac{4c}{c^2}$ .
Divide Terms: Simplify the expression by dividing the terms. $\newline$ Since $c/c^2$ is equivalent to $c^{1-2}$ , we can simplify it to $c^{-1}$ . $\newline$ So, $4c/c^2$ becomes $4 \times c^{-1}$ .
Positive Exponents: Express the answer using positive exponents. $\newline$ To express $c^{-1}$ with a positive exponent, we write it as $1/c$ . $\newline$ Therefore, $4 \times c^{-1}$ is equivalent to $4/c$ .
Final Simplified Expression: Write the final simplified expression. $\newline$ The expression $\frac{4c}{c^2}$ simplifies to $\frac{4}{c}$ .
