Evaluate the expression. Write your answer as a fraction in simplest form.

8 to the third / 8 to the fourth

8³:8∧4

The answer is 1/8

There are certain rules following exponents with the same base. If the base of two exponents are the same, and they're laid out in fraction 8^a/8^b, then you can determine the outcome by doing 8^ (a-b). In this case, that would make it 8^ (-1), or 1/8.
