Question

(3a^3)^4 ....... ................

Answer 1

$81a^{12}$

Answer 2

To simplify the expression (3a^3)^4, you apply the exponentiation rule, which states that raising a power to another power means you multiply the exponents:

(3a^3)^4 = 3^(4) * (a^3)^4

Now, simplify further:

3^(4) = 3 * 3 * 3 * 3 = 81

(a^3)^4 = a^(3*4) = a^12

Therefore, the final simplified expression is:

(3a^3)^4 = 81a^12
