Question

Fernando factored 45y^6 as (9y^3)(5y^3).

Answer 1

Answer:

They both factored it correctly

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the one that was factored correctly, we expand the two of them and compare with $45y^6$.

Fernando

$(9y^3)(5y^3)$

= $9 * 5 * y^3 * y^3$

= $45y^6$

Salma

$(3y)(15y^5)$

= $3 * 15 * y * y^5$

= $45y^6$

As we can see, they both factored it correctly.
