(2a³b²)⁴*(5a⁴b) simplifying the first term we shall have: (2a³b²)⁴ =2⁴a³*⁴b²*⁴ simplifying this we get: 16a¹²b⁸
Next we multiply both terms 16a¹²b⁸×5a⁴b simplifying this we get: (16×5)(a¹²×a⁴)(b³×b) not that when you multiply number with same base, you add their powers: thus we shall have =80(a¹²⁺⁴)(b³⁺¹) =80a¹⁶b⁴
