Faced with the problem 4^{5} times 4^{3} or (4^{5})(4^{3}) nathan is having trouble deciding which of four answers below is correct explain to nathan which is the correct answer
4^{8} , 4^{15} , 16^{8} , 16^{15} ,
find three factors for the given ( )( )( )=-24qp5

The question is kind of confusing. if it's asking how many variations of answers can you give. then do 4^5 for your answer.this would be something like the first question could be a and the 2nd c or first b next c etc. if you can, ask the teacher for a better confirmation of what it's asking. if i'm assuming correctly what it's asking, it's 625 different variations.
