Answer:
4x^(5) y^(6) √(7y)

Explanation:

1) Separate the radicals

sqrt(112x^10y^13) = sqrt(112)*sqrt(x^10)*sqrt(y^13)

2) For sqrt(112), rewrite it as the product of a perfect square and some other number.

sqrt(112) = sqrt(16) * sqrt(7)

= 4*sqrt(7)

3) For sqrt(x^10), rewrite it in terms of it being raised to a fraction


\sqrt[n]{x} = x^{(1)/(n) }

n = 2, so x^(10/2), and when simplified you have x^5

4) For sqrt(y^13), do the same thing.

y^(13/2) = sqrt(y)*(y^6)

5)Combine everything

4x^5y^6sqrt(7y)
