Question

Simplify: x³y³/x³y²

Select one:
a. y
b. xy
C. X
d. xy/x

Answer 1

y

Explanation:

given expression, x³y³/x³y²

= (x³)(y³)/(x³)(y²)

= y³/y² ( x³ will get canceled )

=(y^2)y/y² ( y^2 will get canceled )

= y

Answer 2

The simplified form of
`\sf (x^3y^3)/(x^3y^2) \:is\: \boxed{a.\: y}`

Explanation:

To simplify, we can use the following formula:

`\sf (x^m)/(x^n)=x^(m-n)`

In this case, we have m=3 and n=3,

so we can simplify as follows:

`\sf (x^(3)y^(3))/(x^(3)y^(2))=x^(3-3)y^(3-2)=x^(0)y^(1)=\boxed{y}`

So, the answer is a. y
