Question

Hi,please help !
Simplify : 10c³de² ÷ 2cde =

Answer 1

5e^3cdc^3d is the simplify answer

Answer 2

Step 1: Think about this as four separate division questions:

`(10c^3de^2)/(2cde) =(10)/(2) \cdot (c^3)/(c) \cdot(d)/(d)\cdot (e^2)/(e)`

Step 2: Simplify each of the four, one at a time:

`\begin{aligned}(10c^3de^2)/(2cde) &=(10)/(2) \cdot (c^3)/(c) \cdot(d)/(d)\cdot (e^2)/(e)\\[0.5em]&=5 \cdot c^(3-1) \cdot1\cdot e^(2-1)\\[0.5em]&=5 c^(2) e\end{aligned}`
