Recall that the exponent of the denominator is sutracted from the exponent of the numerator.
Therefore Quantity A is equivalent to x5–y, and because we would then be comparing an arithmetic operation to a geometric operation, it does not matter whether y is a multiple of 5. The two quantities cannot be compared.
