Need Help With Fractions?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What do you need help with? :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

(2/3)^5 = 32/243 Right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

After that I want to multiple by 36. so 36 * 32/243

OpenStudy (marissalovescats):

Yes, you are correct.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 1152/243?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

simplified is 128/27

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I guess my book is wrong.. Idk

OpenStudy (marissalovescats):

Yes but I'm not sure on the simplified part, I have to check that lol

OpenStudy (marissalovescats):

What does your book say?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the way that you posted the problem, you would raise 2/3 to the 5th power so it would be (2/3)(2/3)(2/3)(2/3)(2/3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

512/243

OpenStudy (marissalovescats):

Which is 32/243

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@marissalovescats is right

OpenStudy (anonymous):
