Answer:


\sqrt[6]{n^(23)}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is


√(n^5)\sqrt[3]{n^4}

To simplify, we first need to write them in exponent form


n^{(5)/(2)}\cdot n^{(4)/(3)}

Now, we can add the exponents


\begin{gathered} n^{(5)/(2)}\cdot n^{(4)/(3)}=n^{(5)/(2)+(4)/(3)}=n^{(23)/(6)} \\ \\ Because \\ (5)/(2)+(4)/(3)=(5(3)+2(4))/(2(3))=(15+8)/(6)=(23)/(6) \end{gathered}

Finally, we can write the expression in radical form


n^{(23)/(6)}=\sqrt[6]{n^(23)}

Therefore, the answer is


\sqrt[6]{n^(23)}
