Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

  • $ {{(4\times 4\times 4\times 4\times 4\times 4)}^{5}}\times {{(4\times 4\times 4)}^{8}}\div {{(4)}^{3}}={{(64)}^{?}} $

$ \Rightarrow $ $ {{(4^{6})}^{5}}\times {{(4^{3})}^{8}}\times \frac{1}{{{(4)}^{3}}}={{(4^{3})}^{?}} $

$ \Rightarrow $ $ {{(4)}^{30}}\times {{(4)}^{24}}\times \frac{1}{{{(4)}^{3}}}={{(4^{3})}^{?}} $

$ \Rightarrow $ $ {{(4)}^{30+24-3}}=(4^{3}) $
$ \Rightarrow $ $ {{(4)}^{51}}={{(4^{3})}^{?}} $ On comparing both sides, we get $ 3\times ?=51 $
$ \Rightarrow $ $ ?=\frac{51}{3}=17 $
