Explanation:

(5k^2m)^3[(4km^4)^2]^2(5k2m)3[(4km4)2]2

Use Rule: (a^m)^n = a^(mn)(am)n=amn

(5^3k^(2xx3)m^3[(4^2k^2m^(4xx2)]^2(53k2×3m3[(42k2m4×2]2

=>(125k^6m^3)[(16k^2m^8)]^2(125k6m3)[(16k2m8)]2

=>(125k^6m^3)(16^2k^(2xx2)m^(8xx2)(125k6m3)(162k2×2m8×2

=>(125k^6m^3)(256k^4m^16)(125k6m3)(256k4m16)

Use Rule : a^m\ times a^n = a^(m+n)

=> 125xx256 k^(6+4) m^(3+16)

=> 32000 k^10 m^19

this can be written as :

=> 2^5xx10^3k^10m^19 -----------as 32000= 2^5 xx 10^3
