$$\frac { - 4 t } { 2 t }$$

Evaluate

$$-2$$

Steps for Quotient of Exponentials

Use the rules of exponents to simplify the expression.

$$\frac{\left(-4\right)^{1}t^{1}}{2^{1}t^{1}}$$

To divide powers of the same base, subtract the denominator's exponent from the numerator's exponent.

$$\frac{\left(-4\right)^{1}t^{1-1}}{2^{1}}$$

Subtract 1 from 1.

$$\frac{\left(-4\right)^{1}t^{0}}{2^{1}}$$

For any number a except 0, a^{0}=1.

$$\frac{\left(-4\right)^{1}}{2^{1}}$$

Divide -4 by 2.

$$-2$$

Factor
