Final answer:

The expression that is equivalent to ⁵√243 is ⁵√5³.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the expression that is equivalent to ⁵√243, we need to simplify it using fractional exponents. The fifth root of a number is equivalent to raising the number to the power of 1/5.

Therefore, ⁵√243 can be written as 243^(1/5).

Now, let's simplify each of the given options:

a) ⁵√3⁵ = 3^(5/5) = 3^1 = 3

b) ⁵√2⁵ = 2^(5/5) = 2^1 = 2

c) ⁵√5³ = 5^(3/5)

d) ⁵√9³ = 9^(3/5)

Out of the given options, option c) ⁵√5³ = 5^(3/5) is equivalent to ⁵√243.
