Video Solution

Solution Steps

00:00 Simplify the following problem
00:04 According to the laws of exponents, a fraction raised to the power (N)
00:09 equals the numerator and denominator raised to the same power (N)
00:13 Note that both numerator and denominator are products
00:17 We will apply this formula to our exercise
00:22 According to the laws of exponents when the entire product is raised to the power (N)
00:26 it is equal to each factor in the product separately raised to the same power (N)
00:32 We will apply this formula to our exercise
00:48 This is the solution

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we'll use exponentiation properties to simplify the given expression:

  • Step 1: Apply the exponent to each term in the numerator: (5×6×7)b=5b×6b×7b(5 \times 6 \times 7)^b = 5^b \times 6^b \times 7^b.
  • Step 2: Apply the exponent to each term in the denominator: (9×11×13)b=9b×11b×13b(9 \times 11 \times 13)^b = 9^b \times 11^b \times 13^b.
  • Step 3: Use the property of exponents for fractions: (5×6×79×11×13)b=5b×6b×7b9b×11b×13b\left(\frac{5 \times 6 \times 7}{9 \times 11 \times 13}\right)^b = \frac{5^b \times 6^b \times 7^b}{9^b \times 11^b \times 13^b}.

As we have followed the rules of exponents and simplified accordingly, the corresponding expression is:

5b×6b×7b9b×11b×13b \frac{5^b \times 6^b \times 7^b}{9^b \times 11^b \times 13^b} .

Answer

5b×6b×7b9b×11b×13b \frac{5^b\times6^b\times7^b}{9^b\times11^b\times13^b}
