\frac{ {a}^( - 3) }{ {a}^(2).a}

In the denominator as you can see that the bases are same, Therefore we're gonna add those powers.
something like this:

= \frac{ {a}^( - 3) }{ {a}^(2 + 1) } \\ = \frac{ {a}^( - 3) }{ {a}^(3) }

As we take the numerator to the denominator (when the base is same) then, the powers are turned to negative something like this:

\frac{1}{ {x}^(3) } \\ = 1 * {x}^( -3) \\ = {x}^( - 3)


So we'll do the same thing here,

{a}^( - 3) * {a}^( - 3)
Bases are same so once again add the powers,

{a}^( (- 3 ) + (- 3))

and you'll get :

{a}^( - 6)
which is the same thing as

\frac{1}{ {a}^(6) }
