1. Problem Description

The problem is to simplify the expression [(2x2y3)2]23x2y\frac{[(2x^2y^3)^2]^{-2}}{3x^{-2}y} and express the answer in simplest positive indicial form.

2. Solution Steps

First, simplify the numerator:
[(2x2y3)2]2=(2x2y3)4=24x8y12=124x8y12=116x8y12[(2x^2y^3)^2]^{-2} = (2x^2y^3)^{-4} = 2^{-4}x^{-8}y^{-12} = \frac{1}{2^4x^8y^{12}} = \frac{1}{16x^8y^{12}}
Next, rewrite the original expression:
[(2x2y3)2]23x2y=116x8y1213x2y=116x8y123x2y=148x82y12+1=148x6y13\frac{[(2x^2y^3)^2]^{-2}}{3x^{-2}y} = \frac{1}{16x^8y^{12}} \cdot \frac{1}{3x^{-2}y} = \frac{1}{16x^8y^{12} \cdot 3x^{-2}y} = \frac{1}{48x^{8-2}y^{12+1}} = \frac{1}{48x^6y^{13}}
We have:
xaxb=xa+bx^a \cdot x^b = x^{a+b}
(xa)b=xab(x^a)^b = x^{ab}

3. Final Answer

148x6y13\frac{1}{48x^6y^{13}}
