Question

Can anybody explain how to simplify this?

Answer 1

Order of operations - PEDMAS or BEDMAS
Distribute the exponents first.

Answer 2

\[(\frac{c^2x^3}{zy^6})^4\times \frac{z^4y^3}{(c^3x^5)^2}\]

Answer 3

Remember when raising a power to a power, you need to multiply the exponents.

Answer 4

\[x^a \times x^b = x^{a+b}\]
and
\[(x^a)^b = x^{ab} = (x^b)^a\]

Answer 5

(c^8 x ^12/ z^4 y^24) (z^4 y^3 / c^6 x10)
