Math Problem Statement

Simplify 5m^2n^3 × 3mn^4

Solution

The given expression is:

5m2n3×3mn45m^2n^3 \times 3mn^4

Step-by-step simplification:

  1. Multiply the coefficients:
    5×3=155 \times 3 = 15

  2. Combine the powers of mm:
    m2×m=m2+1=m3m^2 \times m = m^{2+1} = m^3

  3. Combine the powers of nn:
    n3×n4=n3+4=n7n^3 \times n^4 = n^{3+4} = n^7

Now, combine everything:

15m3n715m^3n^7

Final simplified expression:

15m3n715m^3n^7
