Show us your best attempt and I'll help you fix where you're wrong. This is where you really get to test if you understand the chain rule or not. I'll help broaden your understanding of it, but I have to see how you mess up first so I can help you fix what you don't understand and not waste time explaining things you already know. Groovy? Try it out, give it your best go. Go! =D

I somewhat understand the chain rule, its just that i dont know how to approach this problem. I'd prefer if you did give me a broader view of the chain rule so i can understand it more clearly
