The simplified form of
\((2c^6d)/(10c^3)\) is
\((c^3d)/(5)\), obtained by factoring out common terms and canceling common factors. The expression reduces to
\((c^3d)/(5)\) after simplification.

To simplify the expression
\((2c^6d)/(10c^3)\), first, factor out the common terms in the numerator and denominator:


\[ (2c^6d)/(10c^3) = (2 \cdot c^3 \cdot c^3 \cdot d)/(10 \cdot c^3) \]

Now, cancel out the common factors in the numerator and denominator:


\[ \frac{2 \cdot \cancel{c^3} \cdot c^3 \cdot d}{10 \cdot \cancel{c^3}} = (2c^3d)/(10) \]

Finally, simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, which is 2:


\[ (2c^3d)/(10) = \frac{\cancelto{1}{2}c^3d}{\cancelto{5}{10}} = (c^3d)/(5) \]

So,
\((2c^6d)/(10c^3)\) in its simplest form is
\((c^3d)/(5)\).

The complete question is:
Write
2c^(6)d / 10c^(3) as a fraction in its simplest form.
