Show answer & explanation

Correct answer

845\frac{8}{45}

Explanation

(8116)3/4=(1681)3/4=(2434)3/4=2333=827\left(\frac{81}{16}\right)^{-3/4} = \left(\frac{16}{81}\right)^{3/4} = \left(\frac{2^4}{3^4}\right)^{3/4} = \frac{2^3}{3^3} = \frac{8}{27}. (259)1/2=(925)1/2=35\left(\frac{25}{9}\right)^{-1/2} = \left(\frac{9}{25}\right)^{1/2} = \frac{3}{5}. Product = 827×35=24135=845\frac{8}{27} \times \frac{3}{5} = \frac{24}{135} = \frac{8}{45}.
