Choose the correct simplification of the expression the quantity a to the 4th power over b to the 2nd power all raised to the 3rd power. a to the 7th power over b to the 5th power a to the 12th power over b to the 6th power ab9 a12b6

Your answer will be the second choice.

Lets get started :)

a to the 4th power = a⁴
          over                              
b to the 2nd power = b²
( ) raised to 3rd power = (  )³

The power of power properties apply here
(a) 4 x 3 = 12 
(b) 2 x 3 = 6



Your answer will be the 2nd Option 
a to the 12th power over b to the 6th power
