Solution

(i)
left (4^{-1}times 3^{-1} right )^2=left (frac{1}{4}times frac{1}{3} right )^2 ---> (a−1 = 1/a)
=left (frac{1}{12} right )^2
=frac{1^2}{12^2} ---> ((a/b)n = (an)/(bn) )
=124

(ii)
left (5^{-1}div 6^{-1} right )^3=left (frac{1}{5}div frac{1}{6} right )^3 ---> (a−1 = 1/a)
=left (frac{1}{5}times6 right )^3
= 653
= 6353 ---> ((a/b)n = (an)/(bn) )

= 216125

(iii)
(2-1+3-1)-1 =12+13-1 ---> (a−1 = 1/a)
= 56-1
=15/6 ---> (a−1 = 1/a)
=65

(iv)
left (3^{-1}times 4^{-1} right )^{-1}times 5^{-1}=left (frac{1}{3}times frac{1}{4} right )^{-1}times frac{1}{5} ---> (a−1 = 1/a)
=left (frac{1}{12}right )^{-1}times frac{1}{5}
=125 ---> (a−1 = 1/a)
