Answer:


2xy\sqrt[3]{2x^2z} and
2xy(2x^2z)^{(1)/(3)}.

Explanation:

The given radical expression is


\sqrt[3]{16x^5y^3z}

We have to simplify the above expression.

The above expression can be written as


\sqrt[3]{(2* 8)(x^(3+2))y^3z}


\sqrt[3]{(2* 2^3)(x^3* x^2)y^3z}
[\because a^(m+n)=a^ma^n]


\sqrt[3]{(2^3x^3y^3)(2x^2z)}


\sqrt[3]{(2xy)^3}\sqrt[3]{2x^2z}
[\because (ab)^m=a^mb^m]


2xy\sqrt[3]{2x^2z}
[\because \sqrt[n]{x^n}=x]

It can be written as exponent form.


2xy(2x^2z)^{(1)/(3)}
[\because \sqrt[n]{a}=a^{(1)/(n)}]

Therefore, the required expressions are
2xy\sqrt[3]{2x^2z} and
2xy(2x^2z)^{(1)/(3)}.
