How do you multiply two numbers that have different roots for example 2 fourthed times 3 squared? Do I add the roots or multiply them... I am confused please help
TYPO:!!! 2 fourthed times square root of 3
(2^4)(3^2)
You can't do combine or otherwise manipulate them based on exponents or bases.
All you can do is figure out each one independently, and then multiply to two together.
To multiply two numbers with different roots, such as 2√4 (2 fourthed) and 3√2 (3 squared), you need to perform both multiplication and multiplication of the roots. Let's break down the process step by step:
Step 1: Multiply the numbers outside the roots.
In this case, you have 2 * 3 = 6.
Step 2: Multiply the numbers inside the roots.
Inside the first root, √4, the number is 4.
Inside the second root, √2, the number is 2.
To multiply these inside numbers, you can simply multiply them together:
4 * 2 = 8.
Step 3: Combine the numbers and roots.
Now, you have the result of 6 from Step 1, and the result of 8 from Step 2.
To write the final answer correctly, you need to combine the results:
6√8.
Therefore, the product of 2 fourthed times 3 squared is 6√8.
Remember that when multiplying numbers with different roots, you multiply the numbers outside the roots and multiply the numbers inside the roots separately, then combine them in the final result.
