If they asked for a numeric answer, I can't imagine doing it without a calculator. The furthest I am able to simplify it is
-2^99/3^99 after that I don't see how you can solve it.
can u help with this Problem solving

Shakyad,
This is a serious infraction of GMAC rules. You agreed not to disclose any information regarding actual test questions when you took the test. A website did this a few years back and everybody involved had their scores revoked. Please edit the question and refrain from posting actual GMAT questions.

could anyone give me the easy way.
The GMAT spends approximately $2,400 to generate a question. Not to mention that they have some of the best minds working on content.
Posting a question from the actual test is a serious infraction, and Shakyad, I am sure you didnt know any better.....but I would advise you to edit your post.
For love, not money.
I doubt the GMAT actually wanted you to calculate the question. I bet this was an approximate answer type of question with very wide values. I guarantee that one of the answer choices was zero, since (-2/3)^99 is essentially zero.
