Equation at the end of step 2 :
Step 3 :
3.1 15 = 3•5
(15)5 = (3•5)5 = 35 • 55
Equation at the end of step 3 :
Step 4 :
4.1 14 = 2•7
(14)6 = (2•7)6 = 26 • 76
Equation at the end of step 4 :
Step 5 :
(26•76•35•55)
Simplify —————————————
(56•76•25•35)
Dividing exponents :
5.1 26 divided by 25 = 2(6 - 5) = 21 = 2
Canceling Out :
5.2 Canceling out 76 as it appears on both sides of the fraction line
Canceling Out :
5.3 Canceling out 35 as it appears on both sides of the fraction line
Dividing exponents :
5.4 55 divided by 56 = 5(5 - 6) = 5(-1) = 1/51 = 1/5
Final result :
2
