To calculate \\[\\frac{\\var{x}^\\var{m}}{\\var{x}^\\var{n}},\\]

\n

the first thing we do is simplify using the rule:

\n

\\[\\frac{a^m}{a^n}= a^{m-n}.\\]

\n

So in this case we get:

\n

\\[\\frac{\\var{x}^\\var{m}}{\\var{x}^\\var{n}}= \\var{x}^\\var{m-n}.\\]

\n

And then \\[\\var{x}^\\var{m-n} = \\var{ans}.\\]
