Question

Simplify (2/9)^3 A.6/9 B.8/729 C.2/720

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{8}{729}$

Explanation:

Before we begin, remember that:

($\frac{a}{b}$)ⁿ = $\frac{a^n}{b^n}$

This means that power is distributed in case of division

The given is:

$(\frac{2}{9} )^3$

Applying the above rule, we would get:

$(\frac{2}{9} )^3$ = $\frac{2^3}{9^3} = \frac{2*2*2}{9*9*9} = \frac{8}{729}$

Hope this helps :)
