Answer:

a) x³y²

b) 6x²y³

Explanation:

For a), x × x × x can be simplified to x³ (there are three x's multiplying each other) and y × y can be simplified to y² (there are two y's multiplying each other)

For b) 2 × 3 can be simplified to 6, x × x can be simplified to x² and y × y × y can be simplified to y³

Hope this helps!
