So, you're looking for:
[tex] \frac{(-6)^{8} }{(-6)^{2}} [/tex]
With exponents when you're dividing, you can subtract the exponents when the bases are the same. It works for this.
8-2= 6, So now it's (-6)^6
It's an even exponent, so the answer will be a positive number.
(-6)^6=  46,656
You can even make sure that you're correct by not changing the expression.
So, the answer is 46,656.
