See the entire simplification process below:

Use this rule of exponents to simplify the expression:

$x^color(red)(a)/x^color(blue)(b) = x^(color(red)(a)-color(blue)(b))$

$(2f^color(red)(10))/(f^color(blue)(5)) = 2f^(color(red)(10)-color(blue)(5)) = 2f^5$

How do you simplify (2f^10)/( f^5)(2f^10)/( f^5) using only positive exponents?
