Solution - Simplification or other simple results

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "^-3" was replaced by "^(-3)".

(2): "1.7" was replaced by "(17/10)".

Step  1  :

 1.1     10 = 2•5

(10)^-3 = (2•5)^(-3) = (2)^(-3) • (5)^(-3)

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  17
  —— • ((2)(-3)•(5)(-3))
  10

Step  2  :

            17
 Simplify   ——
            10

Equation at the end of step  2  :

  17
  —— • ((2)(-3)•(5)(-3))
  10

Step  3  :

Multiplying exponents :

 3.1    2¹  multiplied by  2³   = 2^{(1 + 3)} = 2⁴

Multiplying exponents :

 3.2    5¹  multiplied by  5³   = 5^{(1 + 3)} = 5⁴

Final result :

     17             
  ——————— = 0.00170 
  (24•54)
