Answer: About 8.5 cubic yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The length of the garden = 16 ft.

The width of the garden = 34 ft.

The depth of the thick layer of topsoil on the garden = 5 inch

=\dfrac{5}{12}\text{ ft.}               [Since 1 foot = 12 inches]

The volume of a rectangular prism :-

V=l*w*h, where l is length , w is width and h is height.

The number of cubic feet of topsoil required will be

V=16\times34\times\dfrac{5}{12}=\dfrac{680}{3}\text{cubic feet}

Since 1 yard = 3 feet

1\text{ foot}=\dfrac{1}{3}\text{ yard}

V=\dfrac{680}{3}\times\dfrac{1}{3}\times\dfrac{1}{3}\times\dfrac{1}{3}=8.3950617284\approx8.50\text{cubic yards}

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

The trick here is to reduce each of the bases to lowest form first

12 = 3.4 = 3 .2.2  = 3.2^{2}\\12^{3}  = (3.2^{2} )^{3} = 3^{3}2^{6}  \\6 = 3.2\\6^{5} = (3.2)^{5} = 3^{5} .2^{5} \\\\Numerator = 3^32^63^52^5 = 3^82^{11}\\Denominator computation\\9 = 3^2\\9^{4} = (3^{2} )^4 = 3^{8} \\Denominator = 3^82^{10} \\\\\frac{Numerator}{Denominator }  =\frac{{3^8}{2^{11} }}{3^82^{10}} = \frac{2^{11}} {2^{10}} = 2^1 = 2
