Math Question

I had one question that I don't seem to understand.

Algebra: [(1/5)^m] * [(1/4)^18] = 1/[2(10)^35]
what is m?

Any insight would be appreciated, thanks.

Solution Set to the practice tests provided by GMAC??

Hello,

So I downloaded and took one of the practice tests that GMAT provides when registering, and was annoyed to see that the solutions aren't available!! The exam simply highlights the right answer but doesn't provide any explanations.. is this correct?

I have the Veritas material, I must say it is pretty comprehensive and well put together. It does cost a pretty penny, $1400, but it systematically works through the test and does a good breaking down the questions.
