OT: Figure this out

For all the math nuts out there, simplify this: [(X)(A^5)(S^-2)] / [(M^-1)(A^4)(S^-3)] (This would be easier to get if I could figure out how to underline) Dave

Dave, Are you kidding?????? LOL I'm having a hard enough time trying to figure out my 2nd graders math word problems on a daily basis!!! Good luck and congrats to all who can figure that equation out! Math, is NOT my strong point! paula

Owww, my head hurts just looking at this! It brings back some pretty bad memories too... Thanks alot! Merry Christmas, and Happy Hanukah everyone! Anne

Oh, I suck at math, so I'll just do what I used to do in math class: guess, or make s**t up. 1. Xmas 2. Merry Christmas

If I knew what the "^" symbol was, I could. Peter

The "^" is meant to be an exponent.

Merry to you too. So... another slow day at the school, huh Peter

You will find out the answer to THAT when you read your e-mail and see what I put together today during prep. Dave

Exponent????? gauzuentite!!!!!!

Dave, I got it, I got it !!! I think . (X)(M)(A)(S) Please correct and send back to me. Bree
