HELP ASAP!!!

One crate can store 12^3 toys. A warehouse receives 12^7 toys. Enter the number of crates
needed to store all the toys the warehouse received.

Answer 1

12^4 or 20736

Explanation:

Since the warehouse has 12^7 toys and you need to find how much crates that can fit 12^3 toys will store all the toys, you must divide 12^7 by 12^3.

When dividing radical expressions, remember:

a^3/a^2=a^1 This kind of acts like subtracting the squared number

a^3 * a^2 = a^5 This kind of acts like adding the squared number

(a^3)^2 = a^6 This kind of acts like multiplying the squared number

Therefore, if you use the methods above, 12^7 / 12^3 = 12^4

12^4= 20736

Answer 2

Answer: The number of crates needed to store all the toys the warehouse received =
`12^4= 20736`

Explanation:

Given: Total number of toys =
`12^7`

Number of toys in one crate =
`12^3`

The number of crates needed to store all the toys the warehouse received.

= (Total number of toys) ÷ (Number of toys in one crate)

`=12^7/ 12^3 = 12^(7-3)\ \ \ [a^m/ a^n=a^(m-n)]\\\\=12^4`

Hence, the number of crates needed to store all the toys the warehouse received =
`12^4= 20736`
