Cancel the common factor.

$\sqrt{\frac{8 (6 x^{3} y^{7})}{8 (x^{5} y)}}$

Rewrite the expression.

$\sqrt{\frac{6 x^{3} y^{7}}{x^{5} y}}$

Step 3

Cancel the common factor of $x^{3}$ and $x^{5}$ .

Factor $x^{3}$ out of $6 x^{3} y^{7}$ .

$\sqrt{\frac{x^{3} (6 y^{7})}{x^{5} y}}$

Cancel the common factors.

Factor $x^{3}$ out of $x^{5} y$ .

$\sqrt{\frac{x^{3} (6 y^{7})}{x^{3} (x^{2} y)}}$

Cancel the common factor.

$\sqrt{\frac{x^{3} (6 y^{7})}{x^{3} (x^{2} y)}}$

Rewrite the expression.
