Answer 1

To simplify \( a^{67} b^{34} \), we can express it as follows:

1. It is already expressed in a simplified form with separate bases for \( a \) and \( b \).
2. There are no common bases to combine through addition or subtraction of exponents.

Since none of the options match exactly, let me analyze the options given:

• 23: This response does not seem relevant.
• \( a^{33} \): This cannot represent \( a^{67} b^{34} \).
• \( a^{67} b^{34} \): This is the original expression; it is already in simplest form.
• \( ab^{33} \): This is incorrect because it misrepresents the original bases and their respective exponents.

Therefore, the simplified expression remains \( a^{67} b^{34} \) as it is already in its simplest form.

So the correct response is:

a67b34
