Step-by-step solution

We start with the given expression:
(4×5)8(4×5)4 \frac{\left(4\times5\right)^{8}}{\left(4\times5\right)^4}

According to the power of a quotient rule for exponents, we can simplify an expression of the form aman \frac{a^m}{a^n} as amn a^{m-n} .
This rule states that when we divide two exponents with the same base, we subtract the exponents.

Applying this rule to our expression, we have:

  • Base: 4×5 4 \times 5
  • Exponent in the numerator: 8 8
  • Exponent in the denominator: 4 4

Thus, we subtract the exponents in the quotient:

(4×5)84 (4\times5)^{8-4}

Simplifying the exponent:

(4×5)4 (4\times5)^{4}

Therefore, the expression simplifies to:
(4×5)84 (4\times5)^{8-4} .

The solution to the question is (4×5)84 \left(4\times5\right)^{8-4} .

Final Answer

(4×5)84 \left(4\times5\right)^{8-4}
