let's firstly convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction and then divide.

\bf \stackrel{mixed}{2\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{2\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{5}{2}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \cfrac{5}{2}\div 4\implies \cfrac{5}{2}\div \cfrac{4}{1}\implies \cfrac{5}{2}\cdot \cfrac{1}{4}\implies \cfrac{5}{8}

What is the simplified form of 5 square root x^4 • 5 square root x^4
laiz [17]

Answer: C

Step-by-step explanation:

You can write each term into a fraction.

\sqrt[5]{x^4} becomes x^4^/^5

When you multiply 2 terms with the same base, you add the exponents.

x^4^/^5*x^4^/^5=x^4^/^5^+^4^/^5=x^8^/^5

x^8^/^5 is also the same as x\sqrt[5]{x^3}

You get this because \sqrt[5]{x^8} =\sqrt[5]{x*x*x*x*x*x*x*x}. When you pull out 5 os x, you are left with x³ on the inside.
