Answer:

Explanation:

Alright, lets get stared.

The given expression as:


((5ab)^3)/(30a^(-6) b^(-7) )


(5^3a^3b^3)/(30a^(-6) b^(-7))


(125a^3b^3)/(30a^(-6) b^(-7))


(125a^3b^3)/(30)*a^6b^7


(125a^(3+6) b^(3+7) )/(30)


(125a^9b^(10) )/(30)

125 and 30 can be simplified, so


(25a^9b^(10) )/(6)

Hence the answer is
(25a^9b^(10) )/(6) : Answer

Hope it will help :)

ANSWER



\frac{ {(5ab)}^(3) }{30 {a}^( - 6) {b}^( - 7) } = ( 25a ^(9) b^(10) )/(6)



EXPLANATION

To find the expression that is equivalent to

\frac{ {(5ab)}^(3) }{30 {a}^( - 6) {b}^( - 7) }

we must simplify it.


We apply the laws of exponents in the simplification.



First, let us share the cubic exponent for each factor in the numerator to obtain,



\frac{ {(5ab)}^(3) }{30 {a}^( - 6) {b}^( - 7) } = \frac{ 5^(3)a ^(3) b^(3) }{30 {a}^( - 6) {b}^( - 7) }


This gives us,



\frac{ {(5ab)}^(3) }{30 {a}^( - 6) {b}^( - 7) } = \frac{ 125a ^(3) b^(3) }{30 {a}^( - 6) {b}^( - 7) }


We simplify by applying the following law of exponent,



\frac{ {a}^(m) }{ {a}^(n) } = {a}^(m - n)


Our expression now becomes,




\frac{ {(5ab)}^(3) }{30 {a}^( - 6) {b}^( - 7) } = ( 25a ^(3 - - 6) b^(3 - - 7) )/(6)



We simplify further to get,



\frac{ {(5ab)}^(3) }{30 {a}^( - 6) {b}^( - 7) } = ( 25a ^(3 + 6) b^(3 + 7) )/(6)




This finally gives us,



\frac{ {(5ab)}^(3) }{30 {a}^( - 6) {b}^( - 7) } = ( 25a ^(9) b^(10) )/(6)
