Explanation Definition used: Rational Exponents: “If m and n are natural numbers without common prime factors, b is a real number, and b is non-negative when n is even, then b m n = { ( b 1 n ) m = ( b n ) m ( b m ) 1 n = b m n and b − m n = 1 b m n , b ≠ 0 ”. Calculation: Multiply the expression ( 6 m 1 2 + n − 1 2 ) ( 6 m − n − 1 2 ) and simplify it into simple form using positive exponents as follows. ( 6 m 1 2 + n − 1 2 ) ( 6 m − n − 1 2 ) = 6 m 1 2 ( 6 m − n − 1 2 ) + n − 1 2 ( 6 m − n − 1 2 ) = 6 ( 6 ) m 1 2 + 1 − 6 m 1 2 n −
