Answer

127n6y\frac{1}{27n^6y}

Step-by-step solution

4 steps
  1. Write the given expression.

    The expression to simplify is:

    2y3n2y⋅18n4y\frac{2y}{3n^2y \cdot 18n^4y}
  2. Multiply the terms in the denominator.

    Multiply the numerical coefficients and combine the variables using the rule ax⋅ay=ax+ya^x \cdot a^y = a^{x+y}.

    3n2y⋅18n4y=(3×18)⋅(n2⋅n4)⋅(y⋅y)3n^2y \cdot 18n^4y = (3 \times 18) \cdot (n^2 \cdot n^4) \cdot (y \cdot y) =54n2+4y1+1= 54n^{2+4}y^{1+1} =54n6y2= 54n^6y^2
  3. Substitute the simplified denominator back into the expression.

    2y54n6y2\frac{2y}{54n^6y^2}
  4. Simplify the fraction by canceling common factors in the numerator and denominator.

    Divide the numerical coefficients: 254=127\frac{2}{54} = \frac{1}{27}.
    Cancel the variable yy: yy2=1y\frac{y}{y^2} = \frac{1}{y}.

    127n6y\frac{1}{27n^6y}
