    The answer is 1. 9 over 9 is a whole, which is one. 1 to the second power is 1. 1 to the 7th power is 1. No matter how many exponents you put on 1, it will always stay one. So the answer is 1.

    9^2/9^7

    when dividing powers, we subtract the exponents

    9^ (2-7)

    9^ (-5)

    a negative exponent flips from the numerator to the denominator

    1 / 9^5

    Choice D
