Step-by-step solution

Let's solve the expression (3×x)8(3×x) \frac{(3 \times x)^8}{(3 \times x)} step by step using the Power of a Quotient Rule for Exponents.

The expression given is:

(3×x)8(3×x) \frac{(3 \times x)^8}{(3 \times x)}

The Power of a Quotient Rule states that for any non-zero number a a , and integers m m and n n , the expression aman \frac{a^m}{a^n} is equal to amn a^{m-n} .

In this problem, a a is 3×x 3 \times x , m=8 m = 8 , and n=1 n = 1 .

Applying the Power of a Quotient Rule:

  • Subtract the exponent in the denominator from the exponent in the numerator. So we have (3×x)81 (3 \times x)^{8-1} .

Thus, the simplified form of the expression is:

(3×x)7 (3 \times x)^{7}

The solution to the question is: (3×x)7 (3 \times x)^{7} .

Final Answer

(3×x)81 \left(3\times x\right)^{8-1}
