Question

Is (4•6)^3 equivalent to 4•6^3

Answer 1

Answer:

No, (4•6)^3 is not  equivalent to 4•6^3

Step-by-step explanation:

(4•6)^3

4•6^3

Let's solve each one at a time, starting with (4•6)^3

(4•6)^3

Multiply inside the parenthesis first

24^3

Multiply 24 by itself 3 times (Exponents)

24 * 24 * 24

13,824

Now let's solve  4•6^3

4•6^3

Exponents come before multiplication in the order of operations, so multiply 6 by itself 3 times.

4 * (6x6x6)

4 * 216

864

Now we can compare the solutions

13,824 > 864

No, 13,824 is not equivalent to 864.

Hope this helps :)

Answer 2

No because the exponent on 6^3 is 216 and if you use (4•6)^3 then you’ll have to multiply the quotations and then Square it to the third
