The expression is ![\"\"](\"/test/fckeditor/editor/plugins/fckeditor_wiris/integration/showimage.php?formula=203a06b65810ac76e1787934c25d2669.png\")
.
First group the coefficients and variables.
\6p7· 9p7 = (6 · 9)(p7· p7)
\= (54)(p7· p7) (Multiply: 6 · 9 = 54)![\"\"](\"http://www.mathskey.com/userfiles/image/steps_images/step2.JPG\")
Since base is common, apply the product of powers property: am · an = am + n.
\= (54)(p7 + 7)
\= 54p14 (Add exponents: 7 + 7 = 14)![\"\"](\"http://www.mathskey.com/userfiles/image/steps_images/solution.JPG\")
The product of 6p7· 9p7 is 54p14.
