Solution:
We have to find the value of (256)0.16 × (256)0.09. So, By using law of rational exponents am × an = am+n we get (265)0.16 × (256)0.09 = (256)0.16 × (256)0.09 = (256)0.16+0.09 =2560.25 $=256^{\frac{25}{100}}$ $(256)^{0.16}\times(256)^{0.09 }=2^{8\times\frac{25}{100}}$ $=2^{8\times\frac{25}{100}}$ $=2^{8\times\frac{1}{4}}$ $=2^{8\times\frac{1}{4}}=4$ The value of (256)0.16 × (256)0.09 is 4 Hence the correct choice is a.
