Given the equation:

(3x^2 y^5)^3/(2xy^3)^4

Simplify

Solution:

In order to simplify the given equation, we simply apply the rules of exponents for the given. The rules of exponent states that when a number with a degree is raised to another degree enclosed by a parenthesis, we simply need to multiply the degrees.

(3x^2 y^5)^3

= 27x^6y^15

(2xy^3)^4

= 16x^4y^12

Equate the values back in one solution, hence we can simplify further by cancelling out the degrees of the numerator.

= 27x^6y^15/16x^4y^12

= 27x^2y^3

Final answer:

= 27x^2y^3
