Answer:
The answer is [tex]a^{2}[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{a^{5} }{a^{3} }[/tex]
when we divide exponents that have the same base, we subtract the powers and keep the base same.
So, this given fraction will become:
[tex]a^{5-3}[/tex]
=> [tex]a^{2}[/tex]
Or in more simpler terms we can write this off as:
[tex]\frac{a*a*a*a*a}{a*a*a}[/tex]
So, we are left with [tex]a*a=a^{2}[/tex]
