Which is 63 × 64 in exponential form?
A. 36^12
B. 7^6
C. 6^12
D. 6^7

anonymous · Answer

would you multiply 63 and 64 then try each choice?

anonymous · Answer

If you do that...well, that seemed the corect approach to me, I would multiply and group factor them to see how can I put it in a form of x^y...but none of the values that the choices give seems to be equal to 63 × 64 (which equals 4032).

anonymous · Answer

Perhaps you wrote the options or the question incorrectly?

anonymous · Answer

No, I copied and pasted it. that is why I put it on here. It confused me.

anonymous · Answer

Is this from an online assignment?

anonymous · Answer

ok then try a factor tree

anonymous · Answer

it is not really an assignment. it is optional for us to do. but with crct approaching I need to try to study study study

anonymous · Answer

jasime, the values are not equal, so factoring wouldn't help here.

anonymous · Answer

what is that?

anonymous · Answer

64=2^6
63=3^2 ×7

but that doesn't help, I am just simplifying them, just like I would to simplify a square root of these numbers...

@noneyabusiness , ask your teacher about this problem.

anonymous · Answer

Ok, I will. Thanks anyways!

anonymous · Answer

Question him/her saying something along the following lines...

the values that the options multiply to are not equal to 63 × 64...

Good luck with your assignment! You welcome!
