Question 1 Report

Simplify 36\(^\frac{1}{2}\) x 64\(-^\frac{1}{3}\) x 5\(^0\)

Answer Details
To simplify this expression, we can use the rules of exponents. - 36\(^{\frac{1}{2}}\) can be written as the square root of 36, which equals 6. - 64\(^{-\frac{1}{3}}\) can be written as the cube root of 64 raised to the power of -1, which equals 1/4. - 5\(^0\) equals 1. So, the expression becomes: 6 x 1/4 x 1 = 6/4 = 3/2 = 1.5. Therefore, the answer is 11/2.
