Step 1.1

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

$\frac{{(v - v)}^{0}}{{(v + v)}^{- 1} (v - v)}$

Step 1.2

Move ${(v + v)}^{- 1}$ to the numerator using the negative exponent rule $\frac{1}{b^{- n}} = b^{n}$ .

$\frac{{(v - v)}^{0} (v + v)}{v - v}$

Step 2

Cancel the common factor of ${(v - v)}^{0}$ and $v - v$ .

Step 2.1

Factor $v - v$ out of ${(v - v)}^{0} (v + v)$ .

$\frac{(v - v) ({(v - v)}^{- 1} (v + v))}{v - v}$

Step 2.2

Cancel the common factors.

Step 2.2.1

Multiply by $1$ .

$\frac{(v - v) ({(v - v)}^{- 1} (v + v))}{(v - v) \cdot 1}$

Step 2.2.2

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{(v - v) ({(v - v)}^{- 1} (v + v))}{(v - v) \cdot 1}$

Step 2.2.3

Rewrite the expression.

$\frac{{(v - v)}^{- 1} (v + v)}{1}$

Step 2.2.4

Divide ${(v - v)}^{- 1} (v + v)$ by $1$ .

${(v - v)}^{- 1} (v + v)$

Step 3

Subtract $v$ from $v$ .

$0^{- 1} (v + v)$

Step 4

Rewrite the expression using the negative exponent rule $b^{- n} = \frac{1}{b^{n}}$ .

$\frac{1}{0} (v + v)$

Step 5

The expression contains a division by $0$ . The expression is undefined.
