in simplest form
Answer: (8a^3)^2/3
Steps:
1. Rewrite the expression as (8a^-3)^-2/3
2. Apply the rule of exponents: (x^a)^b = x^(ab)
3. (8a^-3)^-2/3 = (8a^-3)^(-2/3)
4. (8a^-3)^(-2/3) = (8a^(-2*3))/3
5. (8a^(-2*3))/3 = (8a^-6)/3
6. (8a^-6)/3 = (8a^6)^(1/3)/3
7. (8a^6)^(1/3)/3 = (8a^6)^(1/3)/3
8. Simplify: (8a^6)^(1/3)/3 = (8a^6)/3

I treated the (8a-^-3) as a typo and changed it to (8a^-3) , so we have
(8a^-3)^(-2/3)
= (8^(-2/3) )(a^2)
= ( 2^-2)(a^2)
= (1/4)a^2 or a^2 / 4
of course the bot couldn't handle this
(8a^-3)^(-2/3)
= (8^(-2/3) )(a^2)
= ( 2^-2)(a^2)
= (1/4)a^2 or a^2 / 4
of course the bot couldn't handle this
