Questionills Check Quiz (Integrated Question 1 of 17 This question $1 \leftarrow$
Use properties of rational exponents to simplify the expression. Assume that all variables represent positive numbers. $\begin{array}{l} \frac{x^{1 / 5}}{x^{2 / 5}} \\ \frac{x^{1 / 5}}{x^{2 / 5}}= \end{array}$ $\square$ (Use positive exponents only.)

Studdy Solution
Convert the expression to use positive exponents only. Recall that $a^{-m} = \frac{1}{a^m}$ .
Thus, $x^{-1/5}$ can be rewritten as:
$\frac{1}{x^{1/5}}$
The simplified expression with positive exponents is:
$\boxed{\frac{1}{x^{1/5}}}$
