Applying Combined Exponents Rules: Factorization

To solve this exercise, first we note that 25 is the result of a power and we reduce it to a common base of 5.

$\sqrt{25}=5$$25=5^2$Now, we go back to the initial exercise and solve by adding the powers according to the formula:

$a^n\times a^m=a^{n+m}$

$5^4\times25=5^4\times5^2=5^{4+2}=5^6$

First, we recognize that 81 is a power of the number 3, which means that:

$3^4=81$We replace in the problem:

$\frac{81}{3^2}=\frac{3^4}{3^2}$Keep in mind that the numerator and denominator of the fraction have terms with the same base, therefore we use the property of powers to divide between terms with the same base:

$\frac{b^m}{b^n}=b^{m-n}$We apply it in the problem:

$\frac{3^4}{3^2}=3^{4-2}=3^2$$$Therefore, the correct answer is option b.

We use the formula:

$a^0=1$

$\frac{9\times3}{8^0}=\frac{9\times3}{1}=9\times3$

We know that:

$9=3^2$

Therefore, we obtain:

$3^2\times3=3^2\times3^1$

We use the formula:

$a^m\times a^n=a^{m+n}$

$3^2\times3^1=3^{2+1}=3^3$

We use the formula:

$(\frac{a}{b})^n=\frac{a^n}{b^n}$

$(\frac{2}{6})^3=(\frac{2}{2\times3})^3$

We simplify:

$(\frac{1}{3})^3=\frac{1^3}{3^3}$

$\frac{1\times1\times1}{3\times3\times3}=\frac{1}{27}$
