Solve 2y^4y^4/2y^4y^3*2y

$$\frac { 2 y ^ { 4 } y ^ { 4 } } { 2 y ^ { 4 } y ^ { 3 } \cdot 2 y }$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{1}{2}=0.5$$

Solution Steps

To multiply powers of the same base, add their exponents. Add 4 and 4 to get 8.

$$\frac{2y^{8}}{2y^{4}y^{3}\times 2y}$$

To multiply powers of the same base, add their exponents. Add 4 and 3 to get 7.

$$\frac{2y^{8}}{2y^{7}\times 2y}$$

To multiply powers of the same base, add their exponents. Add 7 and 1 to get 8.

$$\frac{2y^{8}}{2y^{8}\times 2}$$

Cancel out 2y^{8} in both numerator and denominator.

$$\frac{1}{2}$$

Factor

$$\frac{1}{2} = 0.5$$
