Answer 1

that's wrong

Answer 2

2x^3 / y^2

Answer 3

I apologize for the mistake. Let's try again.

To simplify the expression fully, we can divide the numerator and denominator by their common factors.

Start with the numerator: 20x^3.

There are no common factors between 20 and x^3, so we leave the numerator as it is.

Now let's simplify the denominator: 50x^2y^3.

We can find the common factors between 50, x^2, and y^3. The largest common factor is 10, so we can divide all three terms by 10 to simplify:

50 / 10 = 5
x^2 / x^2 = 1
y^3 / y^3 = 1

Therefore, the simplified expression is:

(20x^3) / (50x^2y^3) = (2x^3) / (5xy^3)
