Indices and exponents

Given the indices expression as shown;
[tex]\frac{(4^{1/3}\times 4^{2/6} )^{3/4}}{4^{5/6}}[/tex]

Applying the product and quotient law of indices

[tex]\frac{(4^{1/3+1/3})^{3/4}}{4^{5/6}}\\\frac{(4^{2/3})^{3/4}}{4^{5/6}}\\\frac{4^{1/2}}{4^{5/6}}\\[/tex]

Take the difference in the power to have:

4^(1/2 - 5/6)

4^(-2/6)

[tex]4^{-1/3}[/tex]

Hence the simplified form of the expression is [tex]4^{-1/3}[/tex]
