Data provided in the question:
(3²⁷)(5¹⁰)(z) = (5⁸)(9¹⁴)()
Now,
on simplifying the above equation
⇒ (3²⁷)(5¹⁰)(z) = (5⁸)((3²)¹⁴)()
or
⇒ (3²⁷)(5¹⁰)(z) = (5⁸)(3²⁸)()
or
⇒
or
⇒
or
⇒
we can say
x = 5, y = 2 and, z = 3
Now,
(1) y is prime
since, 2 is a prime number,
we can have
x = 5
2) x is prime
since 5 is also a prime number
therefore,
x = 5
