Answer

$\frac{1}{k^4}$

Work Step by Step

We start with the given expression: $k^{-4}j^0$. The negative exponent rule states that for every nonzero number $a$ and integer $n$, $a^{-n}=\frac{1}{a^n}$. We use the rule to rearrange the expression as follows: $\frac{j^0}{k^4}$. The zero as an exponent rule states that for every nonzero number $a$, $a^0=1$. We use the rule to simplify the expression as follows: $\frac{1}{k^4}$
