Solution - Simplification or other simple results

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

(1): "^-4" was replaced by "^(-4)".

(2): "5.4858" was replaced by "(54858/10000)".

Step  1  :

 1.1     10 = 2•5

(10)^-4 = (2•5)^(-4) = (2)^(-4) • (5)^(-4)

Equation at the end of step  1  :

  54858
  ————— • ((2)(-4)•(5)(-4))
  10000

Step  2  :

            27429
 Simplify   —————
            5000 

Equation at the end of step  2  :

  27429
  ————— • ((2)(-4)•(5)(-4))
  5000 

Step  3  :

Multiplying exponents :

 3.1    2³  multiplied by  2⁴   = 2^{(3 + 4)} = 2⁷

Multiplying exponents :

 3.2    5⁴  multiplied by  5⁴   = 5^{(4 + 4)} = 5⁸

Final result :

  (3•41•223)           
  —————————— = 0.00055 
   (27•58)
