Solution - Simplification or other simple results

Reformatting the input :

Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:

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

(2): "0.436" was replaced by "(436/1000)".

Step  1  :

 1.1     10 = 2•5

(10)^-1 = (2•5)^(-1) = (2)^(-1) • (5)^(-1)

Equation at the end of step  1  :

   436
  ———— • ((2)(-1)•(5)(-1))
  1000

Step  2  :

            109
 Simplify   ———
            250

Equation at the end of step  2  :

  109
  ——— • ((2)(-1)•(5)(-1))
  250

Step  3  :

Multiplying exponents :

 3.1    2¹  multiplied by  2¹   = 2^{(1 + 1)} = 2²

Multiplying exponents :

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

Final result :

   109           
  ———— = 0.04360 
  2500
