Final: Three Rules, One Line

Part of the Exponents & Polynomials section of Coddy's Algebra journey. Lesson 59 of 64.

The first challenge runs the whole exponent toolkit in one line: a nested power, a bare x, and a division. Inside out, one law per step, and name each law as you use it.

Challenge

Medium

Simplify (x^4)^2 * x / x^3 to a single power.

Try it yourself
