SOLUTION: Use the five properties of exponents to simplify each of the following expressions:
(y^5)^3(y^3)^2/(y^4)^4
I do not have a clue as to where to start with this.

Question 83843: Use the five properties of exponents to simplify each of the following expressions:
(y^5)^3(y^3)^2/(y^4)^4
I do not have a clue as to where to start with this. Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! (y^5)^3(y^3)^2/(y^4)^4 (y^5)^3(y^3)^2/(y^4)^4
= (y^15)(y^6) / (y^16)(y^15) / y^16
= y^21 / y^31 / y^16
= y^37 / y^31
= y^6
