Quantitative Comparison
Quantity A:
Quantity B:
In Quantity A, we add the exponents because the operation is multiplication, so 45 * 4–3 = 45+(–3) = 42. In Quantity B, we subtract the exponents because the operation is division, so 45 / 4–3 = 45–(–3) = 48. We don't have to finish multiplying out the exponents to see that Quantity B is greater.

This question is asking you for the ratio of m to n. To figure it out, the easiest way is to figure out when 4 to an exponent equals 8 to an exponent. The easiest way to do that is to list the first few results of 4 to an exponent and 8 to an exponent and check to see if any match up, before resorting to more drastic means of finding a formula.
And, would you look at that. 
. Therefore, 
.
