Answer:

The answer is

[tex] {p}^{ - m - n} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \frac{ {p}^{ - m} }{ {p}^{n} } [/tex]

Using the rules of indices.

Since the bases are the same and are dividing we subtract the exponents

That's

[tex] \frac{ {x}^{y} }{ {x}^{z} } = {x}^{y - z} [/tex]

So from the question we have

[tex] \frac{ {p}^{ - m} }{ {p}^{n} } = {p}^{ - m - n} [/tex]

Hope this helps you
