Solution

The correct option is B 181

Need to find:–––––––––––––– (243)45.

To eliminate the negative sign from the exponent, we would take the fraction's (base) reciprocal.

(243)45=(1243)45
[(ab)n=(ba)n]

Now,
(1243)45

=(1535)45
(15=1×1×1×1×1=1and243=3×3×3×3×3=35)

=[(13)5]45
(anbn=(ab)n)

=(13)5×45
((am)n=am×n)

=(13)4

=1434
((ab)n=anbn)

=1×1×1×13×3×3×3

(1243)45=(243)45=181––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

Hence, the value of (243)45 is 181.

Option (b.) is the correct answer.
