To simplify the expression, we can check if there are terms that are needed to be added or subtracted. In this case, there are none. The negative power of a variable can be turned into a positive one by placing the variable to the other side of the line. a number or variable raised to zero is equal to 1. In this case, the answer is A. m q^2 / n^4.
