Answer

D. 3pq2r\text{D. } \frac{3pq^2}{r}

Step-by-step solution

7 steps
  1. Separate the coefficients and variables.

    The given expression is:

    6p−2⋅q−5⋅r32p−3⋅q−7⋅r4\frac{6p^{-2} \cdot q^{-5} \cdot r^3}{2p^{-3} \cdot q^{-7} \cdot r^4}

    We can rewrite this as a product of fractions for each component:

    (62)⋅(p−2p−3)⋅(q−5q−7)⋅(r3r4)\left(\frac{6}{2}\right) \cdot \left(\frac{p^{-2}}{p^{-3}}\right) \cdot \left(\frac{q^{-5}}{q^{-7}}\right) \cdot \left(\frac{r^3}{r^4}\right)
  2. Simplify the coefficients.

    62=3\frac{6}{2} = 3
  3. Simplify the terms with pp using the exponent rule aman=am−n\frac{a^m}{a^n} = a^{m-n}.

    p−2p−3=p−2−(−3)=p−2+3=p1=p\frac{p^{-2}}{p^{-3}} = p^{-2 - (-3)} = p^{-2 + 3} = p^1 = p
  4. Simplify the terms with qq using the exponent rule aman=am−n\frac{a^m}{a^n} = a^{m-n}.

    q−5q−7=q−5−(−7)=q−5+7=q2\frac{q^{-5}}{q^{-7}} = q^{-5 - (-7)} = q^{-5 + 7} = q^2
  5. Simplify the terms with rr using the exponent rule aman=am−n\frac{a^m}{a^n} = a^{m-n}.

    r3r4=r3−4=r−1\frac{r^3}{r^4} = r^{3-4} = r^{-1}
  6. Combine all the simplified terms.

    3⋅p⋅q2⋅r−13 \cdot p \cdot q^2 \cdot r^{-1}

    Using the rule a−n=1ana^{-n} = \frac{1}{a^n}, we can write r−1r^{-1} as 1r\frac{1}{r}.
    So the expression becomes:

    3pq2⋅1r=3pq2r3pq^2 \cdot \frac{1}{r} = \frac{3pq^2}{r}
  7. Compare the result with the given options.

    The simplified expression is 3pq2r\frac{3pq^2}{r}, which matches option D.

    The final answer is D. 3pq2r\text{D. } \frac{3pq^2}{r}.
