Question
Simplify the exponential form: $(-3)^{4} \times\left(\frac{5}{3}\right)^{4}$

Answer

\begin{aligned} (-3)^4 \times\left(\frac{5}{3}\right)^4 & =(-1 \times 3)^4 \times \frac{5^4}{3^4}=(-1)^4 \times 3^4 \times \frac{5^4}{3^4} \\ & =(-1)^4 \times 5^4=5^4 \quad\left[(-1)^4=1\right]\end{aligned}
