What is the product of a number w and 737

GarryVolchara [31]

We don't know what the variable 'w' stands for, so we can't find the product. But we can write the sentence as an equation:

737w

Start by distributing the exponent to each of the terms in $(2u)^{3}$ . This will become $2^{3} u^{3}$ , and $2^{3} =8$ . Now, the expression is:

$\frac{2u^{3} v^{2} }{8u^{3} * u^{2} }$ .

We can now simplify the bottom to read: $8u^{5}$ because when multiplying variables raised to an exponent, we add the exponents. The expression now looks like:

$\frac{2u^{3} v^{2} }{8u^{5} }$

The 2/8 simplifies to 1/4:

$\frac{u^{3} v^{2} }{4u^{5} }$

Now, we have two u terms on the top and bottom. When dividing variables raised to an exponent, we subtract the exponents. However, since 3-5=-2, the term will be on the bottom to avoid the negative exponent. The final answer is:

$\frac{v^{2} }{4u^{2} }$
