Write Expression: Write down the expression to be simplified.The expression given is 4x4y2(4xy4).
Distribute Exponents: Distribute the exponents across the terms inside the parentheses.Using the distributive property of exponents, we multiply the exponents of like bases when multiplying two powers with the same base.(4x4y2)(4xy4)=4⋅4⋅x4+1⋅y2+4
Perform Multiplication: Perform the multiplication of the coefficients and add the exponents of like bases.4×4=16x(4+1)=x5y(2+4)=y6So, the expression becomes 16x5y6.
Final Simplified Expression: Write down the final simplified expression.The fully simplified form of the expression is 16x5y6.
