#=343x^6y^3z^3#

The index shown applies to all the factors inside the bracket.

Recall the laws of indices:

#(xyz)^m = x^my^mz^m" and "(x^m)^n = x^(mn)#

Using both of these laws gives:

#(7x^2yz)^3 = 7^3x^6y^3z^3#

While #7^3# is acceptable, you might want to find the actual value.

#7^3x^6y^3z^3#

#=343x^6y^3z^3#
