Understand the problem: Understand the problem.We need to find which expressions are equivalent to multiplying 6 by itself 5 times, which is written as 6×6×6×6×6.
Evaluate options: Evaluate each option to see if it is equivalent to 6×6×6×6×6. Starting with option (A) (62)3, we need to determine if this expression is equivalent to 6 raised to the 5th power. (62)3=6(2×3)=66, which is not the same as 65.
Check option (A): Move on to option (B) 25×35. We need to check if multiplying 25 by 35 is equivalent to 65. 25×35=(2×3)5=65, which is the same as 6×6×6×6×6.
Check option (B): Evaluate option (C) 66/61. We need to simplify this expression to see if it equals 65. 66/61=6(6−1)=65, which is equivalent to 6∗6∗6∗6∗6.
Check option (C): Finally, look at option (D) 32×23. We need to determine if this expression equals 65. 32×23=(3×3)×(2×2×2)=9×8, which is not the same as 65.
