Solution

simplify

(- \frac{4}{2})^{2}

Solution

4

Solution steps

(- \frac{4}{2})^{2}

Apply exponent rule:

(- a)^{n} = a^{n},

if

n

is even

(- \frac{4}{2})^{2} = (\frac{4}{2})^{2}

= (\frac{4}{2})^{2}

Apply exponent rule:

(\frac{a}{b})^{c} = \frac{a ^{c}}{b ^{c}}

= \frac{4 ^{2}}{2 ^{2}}

4^{2} = 16

= \frac{16}{2 ^{2}}

2^{2} = 4

= \frac{16}{4}

Divide the numbers:

\frac{16}{4} = 4

= 4
