Problem

Simplify. \[ \frac{27 x^{2} y^{4}}{9 x^{3} y^{5}} \]

Solution

Step 1 :Given the expression \(\frac{27 x^{2} y^{4}}{9 x^{3} y^{5}}\)

Step 2 :Divide the coefficients 27 and 9 to get 3

Step 3 :Subtract the exponents of x, \(2 - 3 = -1\)

Step 4 :Subtract the exponents of y, \(4 - 5 = -1\)

Step 5 :The simplified form of the expression is \(3x^{-1}y^{-1}\)

Step 6 :This can also be written as \(\frac{3}{xy}\)

Step 7 :Final Answer: \(\boxed{\frac{3}{xy}}\)
