MCQ

For any two non$-$zero rational nmbers $a, \text{a}^7\div\text{a}^{12}$ is equal to:

A
$\text{a}^5$
B
$\text{a}^{-19}$
✓
$\text{a}^{-5}$
D
$\text{a}^{19}$

✓

Answer

Correct option: C.

$\text{a}^{-5}$

$\text{a}^\text{m}\div\text{a}^\text{n}=\text{a}^{\text{m}-\text{n}}$
Hence,
$\text{a}^\text{7}\div\text{b}^{12}=\text{a}^{7-12}=\text{a}^{-5}$
