Video Solution

Solution Steps

00:00 Simplify the following problem
00:03 According to the exponent laws, a fraction raised to the power (N)
00:07 equals the numerator and denominator raised to the same power (N)
00:10 We will apply this formula to our exercise
00:14 We will raise both numerator and denominator to the power (N)
00:17 This is the solution

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we will rewrite the expression (6x)3\left(\frac{6}{x}\right)^3 using the power of a fraction rule. The steps are as follows:

  • Identify the fraction's numerator 66 and denominator xx.

  • According to the power of a fraction rule, apply the power 3 to both the numerator and the denominator:

  • (6x)3=63x3\left(\frac{6}{x}\right)^3 = \frac{6^3}{x^3}.

Therefore, the expression is correctly written as 63x3 \frac{6^3}{x^3} .

Comparing with the provided answer choices, the correct choice is choice 22:

63x3 \frac{6^3}{x^3}

Answer

63x3 \frac{6^3}{x^3}
