I don’t get this can someone explain please

2^4/4^2 will be 1, I will explain after answering,

2 x 3^1 = 6

(4 - 2) ^2 = 4

First. Evaluate the exponents in the fraction above

2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 16

4 x 4 = 16

and 16 over 16 would equal 1 whole

3 to the power of 1 means just 3 so 2 x 3 = 6 (easy multiplication)

Evaluate in the parenthesis first: 4 - 2 = 2 then 2 to the power of 2 would be   2 x 2 = 4

your answer would be 12

a) 7x=7
