$\frac{\ln (x)}{x^{11}}$

Step 1

Differentiate using the Quotient Rule which states that $\frac{d}{d x} [\frac{f (x)}{g (x)}]$ is $\frac{g (x) \frac{d}{d x} [f (x)] - f (x) \frac{d}{d x} [g (x)]}{{g (x)}^{2}}$ where $f (x) = \ln (x)$ and $g (x) = x^{11}$ .

$\frac{x^{11} \frac{d}{d x} [\ln (x)] - \ln (x) \frac{d}{d x} [x^{11}]}{{(x^{11})}^{2}}$
