$4 a^{3} b^{2} \cdot 3 a^{- 4} b^{- 3}$

Step 1

Move $a^{- 4}$ to the denominator in $a^{- 4}$ using the negative exponent rule $b^{- n} = \frac{1}{b^{n}}$ .

$\frac{1}{a^{4}}$

Step 2

Move $b^{- 3}$ to the denominator in $b^{- 3}$ using the negative exponent rule $b^{- n} = \frac{1}{b^{n}}$ .

$\frac{1}{b^{3}}$

Step 3

Rewrite $4 a^{3} b^{2} \cdot (3 a^{- 4} b^{- 3})$ with positive exponents.

$4 a^{3} b^{2} \cdot 3 \frac{1}{a^{4}} \frac{1}{b^{3}}$
