(a)
(2a^2)^3/b=
2^3*(a^2)^3/b=
8*a^6*b^-1



(b)
a^-1/(b^-1*square root of a)=
a^-1/(b^-1*a^0.5)=
a^-1*(b^1*a^-0.5)=
a^-1*(b^1*a^-0.5)=
a^-1.5*b^1=
a^-1.5*b



(c)
(ab-a)/(b^2-b)=
(ab-a)/(b*(b-1))=
a*(b-1)/(b*(b-1))=
a/b=
a*b^-1




(d)
a*(2/b)/(3/a)=
a*2/b*a/3=
a^2*2/b/3=
a^2*2*b^-1/3=
(2/3)*a^2*b^-1

8a^6b^-1

a^-3/2 b

a(b-1)/(b(b-1)) = ab^-1

2a/b*a/3 = 2/3 a^2b^-1
