$\frac{4^{\frac{2}{3}} \cdot 6}{5^{\frac{2}{3}} \cdot 5^{1}}$

Step 4.1.2.10.1.2

Use the power rule $a^{m} a^{n} = a^{m + n}$ to combine exponents.

$\frac{4^{\frac{2}{3}} \cdot 6}{5^{\frac{2}{3} + 1}}$

Step 4.1.2.10.2

Write $1$ as a fraction with a common denominator.

$\frac{4^{\frac{2}{3}} \cdot 6}{5^{\frac{2}{3} + \frac{3}{3}}}$

Step 4.1.2.10.3

Combine the numerators over the common denominator.

$\frac{4^{\frac{2}{3}} \cdot 6}{5^{\frac{2 + 3}{3}}}$

Step 4.1.2.10.4

Add $2$ and $3$ .

$\frac{4^{\frac{2}{3}} \cdot 6}{5^{\frac{5}{3}}}$

Step 4.1.2.11

Move $6$ to the left of $4^{\frac{2}{3}}$ .

$\frac{6 \cdot 4^{\frac{2}{3}}}{5^{\frac{5}{3}}}$
