Question

Simplify the expression below, I really just need the steps I have the answer (also can someone tell me how to edit points on the app)

Answer 1

Answer:  $3x^2y\sqrt[3]{y}$

Work Shown:

$\sqrt[3]{27x^{6}y^{4}}\\\\\sqrt[3]{3^3x^{3+3}y^{3+1}}\\\\\sqrt[3]{3^3x^{3}*x^{3}*y^{3}*y^{1}}\\\\\sqrt[3]{3^3x^{2*3}*y^{3}*y}\\\\\sqrt[3]{\left(3x^2y\right)^3*y}\\\\\sqrt[3]{\left(3x^2y\right)^3}*\sqrt[3]{y}\\\\3x^2y\sqrt[3]{y}$

Explanation:

As the steps above show, the goal is to factor the expression under the root in terms of pulling out cubed terms. That way when we apply the cube root to them, the exponents cancel. We cannot factor the y term completely, so we have a bit of leftovers.
