Question

A fraction reduces to 36 if its numerator is (6x)^5 what is it’s denominator

Answer 1

Set up an equation:

Numerator is the top number and denominator is the bottom number in a fraction.

(6x)^5 / d = 36

(6x)^5 can be rewritten as 6^5x^5

6^5x^5 / d = 36

Raise 6 tot he power of 5:

7776x^5 /d = 36

Multiply both sides by d:

7776x^5 = 36d

Divide both sides by 36:

d = 7776x^5 / 36

d = 216x^5
