Answer

32m\frac{3}{2m}

Step-by-step solution

4 steps
  1. Simplify the expression inside the second parenthesis.

    When multiplying terms with the same base, add their exponents.

    (8m6×2m5)=(8×2)×(m6×m5)=16m6+5=16m11(8m^6 \times 2m^5) = (8 \times 2) \times (m^6 \times m^5) = 16m^{6+5} = 16m^{11}
  2. Perform the division.

    The expression becomes (24m10)÷(16m11)(24m^{10}) \div (16m^{11}).
    This can be written as a fraction:

    24m1016m11\frac{24m^{10}}{16m^{11}}
  3. Divide the coefficients and the variables separately.

    Divide the numerical coefficients:

    2416=3×82×8=32\frac{24}{16} = \frac{3 \times 8}{2 \times 8} = \frac{3}{2}

    Divide the variable terms using the rule axay=ax−y\frac{a^x}{a^y} = a^{x-y}:

    m10m11=m10−11=m−1=1m\frac{m^{10}}{m^{11}} = m^{10-11} = m^{-1} = \frac{1}{m}
  4. Combine the results.

    32×1m=32m\frac{3}{2} \times \frac{1}{m} = \frac{3}{2m}

    The final answer is 32m\frac{3}{2m}.
