It seems the question is (a^4)^5

To simplify or multiply exponents we apply property of exponents.

We multiply the exponents using power property

(x^m)^n = x^(m*n)= x^(mn)

We apply this property in our problem

Multiply the exponents 4 and 5

4*5 = 20

(a^4)^5 = a^20

In the grid, enter 20 that is the product of the exponents.
