Answer:

Answer option D.

I'm assuming you meant (3/5)'3 for option A.

  • (3/5)^3 also known as (3/5)'3 in your case.

If we simplify the expression (3/5)^3 we can see that ^3 means you cube both the numerator and the denominator since 3/5 is in parenthesis.

Numerator:

3 cubed(3^3) would result in

= 9

Denominator:

5 cubed(5^3) would result in

= 125

Hence, you'll get 9/125.

So your answer is;

A, (3/5)'3
