Answer

Final Answer: \(\boxed{x*y^{-4 - 4/x^2}*z}\)

Steps

Step 1 :Given the expression: \(\left(\frac{x^{3} y^{-4} z}{x y^{4 x^{-2}}}\right)\left(\frac{x y^{3} z^{2}}{x^{2} y^{3} z^{2}}\right)\)

Step 2 :Apply the laws of exponents, which state that when multiplying like bases, you add the exponents, and when dividing like bases, you subtract the exponents.

Step 3 :Simplify the expression to: \(x*y^{-4 - 4/x^2}*z\)

Step 4 :Final Answer: \(\boxed{x*y^{-4 - 4/x^2}*z}\)
