Answer:

4x^3

Explanation:

In the numerator, (top part) we have 2x^4 times 6x^2

2 times 6 is 12, and x^4 times x^2 is x^6.

Thus, in the top part, we have 12 times x^6.

In the bottom part we have 3 times x^3.

This is exactly the answer for d, but this is not a simplified answer.

Dividing 12 by 3 we have 4, and x^6/x^3 gives us x^(6-3) which is x^3.

Therefore, we have the correct answer: 4x^3

Answer:

option c is the correct.

Explanation:


(2x^4*6x^2)/(3x^2)

by using the laws of exponent

a^m×a^n=a^m+n

12x^4+2/3x²


(12x^4)/(3x^3)

4x^4-3

4x³
