The principles to follow are these:

a^p / a^q = a^(p – q) ……………(1)

Subtract q from p. In the first example, p is 1 and q is -4.

The result is therefore a^(1 – (-4)) = a^(1 + 4).

The second one works the same way.

In the third and fourth ones, you need to use:

(a^m b^n)^p = a^(mp)b^(np)

on the top and the bottom separately.

Then use (1) on each of a and b.
