Solve 37yd/51yd

$$\frac { 37 y d } { 51 y d }$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{37}{51}\approx 0.725490196$$

Steps Using Quotient of Powers Property

Use the rules of exponents to simplify the expression.

$$\frac{37^{1}y^{1}d^{1}}{51^{1}y^{1}d^{1}}$$

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

$$\frac{37^{1}}{51^{1}}y^{1-1}d^{1-1}$$

Subtract 1 from 1.

$$\frac{37^{1}}{51^{1}}y^{0}d^{1-1}$$

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

$$\frac{37^{1}}{51^{1}}d^{1-1}$$

Subtract 1 from 1.

$$\frac{37^{1}}{51^{1}}d^{0}$$

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

$$\frac{37^{1}}{51^{1}}$$

Divide 37 by 51.

$$\frac{37}{51}$$

Factor

$$\frac{37}{3 \cdot 17} = 0.7254901960784313$$
