Math Problem Statement
Solution
Let's simplify the expression you provided, which is the following:
[ \frac{\sqrt[3]{270x^{20}}}{\sqrt[3]{5x}} ]
Step 1: Apply the cube root to both terms
We can first simplify the expression by combining the cube roots into one:
[ \frac{\sqrt[3]{270x^{20}}}{\sqrt[3]{5x}} = \sqrt[3]{\frac{270x^{20}}{5x}} ]
Step 2: Simplify the fraction inside the cube root
Now, simplify the fraction:
Step 3: Apply the cube root
Now, we take the cube root of the simplified expression:
To break this down:
- The cube root of 54 can be simplified to .
- The cube root of is , which can be further split as .
Thus, the simplified expression is:
[ \sqrt[3]{54} \cdot x^6 \cdot \sqrt[3]{x} ]
Final Simplified Expression:
[ \sqrt[3]{54} \cdot x^6 \cdot \sqrt[3]{x} ]
This is the most simplified form of the given expression.
