Question

rewrite the expression in the form $y^n$.
\\(\dfrac{y^{\frac{5}{4}}}{y^{\frac{1}{4}}}\\) =

Explanation:

Step1: Recall exponent division rule

When dividing exponents with same base: $y^a / y^b = y^{a - b}$

Step2: Apply the rule to the expression

$\frac{y^{\frac{5}{4}}}{y^{\frac{1}{4}}} = y^{\frac{5}{4} - \frac{1}{4}}$

Step3: Calculate the exponent

$\frac{5}{4} - \frac{1}{4} = \frac{4}{4} = 1$, so result is $y^1$ or $y$

Answer:

$y^{1}$
