The problem is quite hard for me.

(10²)³ / 10² = ?

If anyone can help me thank you.

CharlesRR

(10 ^2) ^3 / 10 ^2 (Using ^2 instead of exponent)
= 100 ^ 3 / 10 ^2
= 1,000,000 / 10 ^2
= 1,000,000 / 100
= 10,000

homework's now complete.

(10²)³ / 10² = ?
(10²=20)³ /10² = ?
(20)³=60/10² = ?
60/10² = ?
60/20=3

Go ahead and anyone else tell me I did it WRONG....

this is wrong...you multiply 10 by 10 when its squared not 10 by 2.... the first answer is correct...

Because it is (10*2)=20*3=60/20=3 inside the brackets first and it is multiplication not what you did. How you came accross that, I will never know...

Yes we are multiplying but we are multiplying it by itself. For example 10² is 100 because 10*10=100

no no no! first of all you didnt add or subtract them you multioplied them, so even this defense is incorrect...You do not add the exponents in this case, you sove the equation within the parentheses, which would be 10 squared then take that number and cube it...simple math order here...PPMDAS! parentheses, powers, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction.....

You need to learn how to use the comment feature here as well. At least I disagreed with you in a post rather than through rep. I dont personally care about rep, but others here do, esp. the newer ones.

this is how i would do it:



using simple exponent rules.

Ok, you did it WRONG! Lol!

Can you explain why you though 10 squared was 20 and not 100?
Was it just a mistake or are you suggesting there is a different way of doing it?

Just wanting to understand!
