4x6y8
Step by step solution :
Step 1 :
Equation at the end of step 1 :
(((3•(x2))•(y4))3)
4•——————————————————
((2x3•(y5))4)
Step 2 :
Equation at the end of step 2 :
((3x2 • (y4))3)

24x12y20
Step 3 :
33x6y12
Simplify ————————
24x12y20
Dividing exponential expressions :
3.1 x6 divided by x12 = x(6 - 12) = x(-6) = 1/x6
Dividing exponential expressions :
3.2 y12 divided by y20 = y(12 - 20) = y(-8) = 1/y8

They have enough balloons because I used division as my operation. 3 can go into 16 five times. I got 1 after subtracting and bring down 2. 3 can go into 12 evenly 4 times. 12 minus 12 equals 0 with no remainder. So, they get 54 balloons for each group. But I want to know how many EACH student gets enough balloons. 54 divided by 6 groups equals 9 balloons for each student. GLOSSARY: Division - Set of operation that breaks down numbers into equal parts | Remainder - left over ||
Three A grows 1 meter in 110/45 = 2.44 years;
Three B grows 1 meter in 1840/110 = 16.72 years;
Because 2.44 < 16.73, the tree A grows faster than tree B.
