That's a misleading proof though.
You mean this: \((\frac{a^{10}}{3})(\frac{b^7}{3})\)
But I mean this: \((a^{\frac{10}{3}})(b^{\frac{7}{3}})\)
There are major differences between the 2 equations.
And I guess the asker means my equation because he said simplified radical form and that's a term for 'Law of Indices'.
Express (a^10/3)(b^7/3) in simplified radical form
Proof: let a=3, b=2
(3^10/3) x (2^7/3) =839,808
(3^10 x 2^7) / 9 =839,808
MaxWong's Solution:
[3^10 x 2^7]^(1/3)=196.25
It is NOT: a^(10/3), or b^(7/3)!!!.
