Question

Can anyone simplify this??

Answer 1

Answer:

$3^{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$($$3^{5}$$)^{2}$

You multiply the exponents to get:

$3^{10}$

Then you divide it by $3^{-2}$

When dividing exponents, you subtract.

10 - - 2 = 12 so the exponent is 12.

That leaves us with:

$3^{12}$
