Answer:

B. 8m ^ 18

Explanation:

(2m ^6)^3 is the same as ;

(2 ^1 × m ^ 6) ^ 3.....multiply the powers 1 and 6 by 3

2 ^ (1×3) × m ^ (6×3).....this equals;

2 ^ 3 × m ^ 18

8m^18

hope this helps :)

Solution given:

since cube is of all

distribute it

like


2³(m^6)^3

we have

2³=8

power is multiplied to its power

m^(6*3)


m^(18)

and
