Solve the following exercise:
To simplify the given expression, we use two laws of exponents:
A. Defining the root as an exponent:
B. The law of exponents for dividing powers with the same base (in the opposite direction):
Let's start by using the law of exponents shown in A:
We continue, since we have a multiplication between two terms with equal exponents, we can use the law of exponents shown in B and combine them under the same base which is raised to the same exponent:
In the last steps, we performed the multiplication of the bases and used the definition of the root as an exponent shown earlier in A (in the opposite direction) to return to the root notation.
Therefore, the correct answer is B.
