Every problem has a solution let's find it.
group like terms together and perform the necessary operation
when working with exponents to divide numbers or variables with the same base subtract the powers
any number or variable to the power of one equals one
y^0 = 1 z^8/z^6 = z^(8-6)
-18y^0z^8/-2z^6
rearrange -18/-2*y^0*z^8/z^6
9 * 1 *z^(8-6) = 9z^2
