Full solution

Q. Simplify. Express your answer using positive exponents. \newline10s(10s2)(s)\frac{10s}{(10s^2)(s)}
  1. Identify Given Expression: Write down the given expression and identify the common factors in the numerator and the denominator.\newlineThe given expression is 10s(10s2)(s)\frac{10s}{(10s^2)(s)}. We can see that ss is common in both the numerator and the denominator.
  2. Cancel Common Factors: Simplify the expression by canceling out the common factors.\newlineThe ss in the numerator can be canceled with one ss from the s2s^2 in the denominator. Also, the 1010 in the numerator and denominator can be canceled out.\newline10s10s2(s)=(1010)(ss2)(1s)\frac{10s}{10s^2}(s) = \left(\frac{10}{10}\right) * \left(\frac{s}{s^2}\right) * \left(\frac{1}{s}\right)\newline=1(1s)(1s)= 1 * \left(\frac{1}{s}\right) * \left(\frac{1}{s}\right)\newline=1s2= \frac{1}{s^2}
  3. Write Final Simplified Expression: Write the final simplified expression using positive exponents.\newlineThe expression 1s2\frac{1}{s^2} already has a positive exponent, so this is the final simplified form.
