$$ \frac { s ^ { 7 } } { s ^ { 10 } } = \square \square $$

Question

UpStudy AI · Accepted Answer

To simplify the expression $$ \frac{ s^{7} }{ s^{10} } $$, you can use the laws of exponents. Specifically, when you divide like bases, you subtract the exponents:

$$
\frac{ s^{7} }{ s^{10} } = s^{7 - 10} = s^{-3}
$$

Alternatively, negative exponents indicate the reciprocal of the base raised to the corresponding positive exponent. So, you can also express $$ s^{-3} $$ as:

$$
s^{-3} = \frac{1}{s^{3}}
$$

**Final Answer:**

$$
\frac{ s^{7} }{ s^{10} } = s^{-3} = \frac{1}{s^{3}}
$$
$$ \frac{ s^{7} }{ s^{10} } = \frac{1}{s^{3}} $$

\( \frac { s ^ { 7 } } { s ^ { 10 } } = \square \square \)
