Question

simplify the expression.
$left(\frac{1}{2}mn
ight)left(4m^{3}n^{3}
ight)$
$left(\frac{1}{2}mn
ight)left(4m^{3}n^{3}
ight)=square$
(simplify your answer. type exponential notation with positive exponents.)

Explanation:

Step1: Multiply coefficients

$\frac{1}{2}\times4 = 2$

Step2: Multiply variables with same base

$m\times m^{3}=m^{1 + 3}=m^{4}$ and $n\times n^{3}=n^{1+3}=n^{4}$

Step3: Combine results

$2m^{4}n^{4}$

Answer:

$2m^{4}n^{4}$
