Question

Simplify:10 a squared over 7 b squared divided by 25 a cubed over 14 b cubed

Answer 1

simplify how? by writing it in mathematical notation?

Answer 2

by distributive property

Answer 3

i dont think i can parse a distribution from it

Answer 4

thats what i dont get because i dont know where to start with the distribution part of the equation

Answer 5

10a^2/7b^2
-----------
25a^3/14b^3

2 4b
----- = ---
5a/2b 5a

Answer 6

can you explain to me where to began please

Answer 7

well, i didnt distribute ... so i have no idea where to begin :)

Answer 8

what did you use to solve it is probably way easier

Answer 9

i multiplied by 1

\[\large \frac{\frac{10a^2}{7b^2}}{\frac{25a^3}{14b^3}}*\frac{\frac{14b^3}{25a^3}}{\frac{14b^3}{25a^3}}\]

\[\large \frac{\frac{10a^2}{7b^2}*\frac{14b^3}{25a^3}}{1}\]
\[\frac{10a^2}{7b^2}*\frac{14b^3}{25a^3}\]
\[\frac{10a^214b^3}{25a^37b^2}\]
\[\frac{10\cancel{a^2}14b}{25a7\cancel{b^2}}\]
\[\frac{\cancel{10}2\ \cancel{14}2b}{\cancel{25}5a\cancel{7}}\]
\[\frac{4b}{5a}\]

Answer 10

oh okay thank you greatly appreciate it :)
