First, simplify the expression inside the parentheses by dividing $b^2$ by $b$, which gives $b^1$ (since $b^2 / b = b^{2-1} = b^1$). Then, you have $\left( \frac{4a^{-4}b}{1} \right)^2$. Squaring each term inside the parentheses gives $16a^{-8}b^2$, which simplifies to $\frac{16b^2}{a^8}$.

Simplify - (4a−4b2b)2\left( \frac { 4 a ^ { - 4 } b ^ { 2 } } { b } \right) ^ { 2 }(b4a−4b2​)2

Simplify
- $\left( \frac { 4 a ^ { - 4 } b ^ { 2 } } { b } \right) ^ { 2 }$
