Take the LHS of the equation and solve it.
take cube of a => a^3 = 2^3m, 8a^3 = 2^(3m+3) {since 8= 2*2*2, and powers add when multiplied with the same base.
b^2 = 2^(2m + 2)
therefore, 8a^3/b^2 = 2^(3m+3) / 2^(2m + 2)
= powers will subtract.
= 2^ (m+1)
since LHS= RHS, Hence proved. (don't forget write at the end !!)
Hope it helps.

Answer
Step-by-step explanation:
a^3=2^3m
=8a^3=2^3m+3
=b^2=2^2m+2
=8a^3/b^2=2^3m+3/2^2m+2
=in divide if base is equal the power subtract
=2^(3m+3)-(2m+2)
=2^3m+3-2m-2
=2^m+1
=2^m+1=2^m+1
=L.H.S =R.H.S(don't forget to write it)
