Video Solution

Solution Steps

00:00 Simplify the following problem
00:04 According to the laws of exponents, a fraction raised to a power (N)
00:07 equals the numerator and denominator, each raised to the same power (N)
00:13 We will apply this formula to our exercise
00:17 This is the solution

Step-by-Step Solution

We need to use the properties of exponents to rewrite the expression (56)10\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{10}.

According to the rule of powers for fractions, when a fraction is raised to a power, both the numerator and the denominator must be raised to that power:

  • (ab)n=anbn\left(\frac{a}{b}\right)^n = \frac{a^n}{b^n}

Therefore, applying this rule to our expression:

(56)10=510610\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{10} = \frac{5^{10}}{6^{10}}

Thus, we have correctly rewritten the given expression using exponent rules.

The corresponding expression for (56)10\left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{10} is 510610\frac{5^{10}}{6^{10}}.

Answer

510610 \frac{5^{10}}{6^{10}}
