Cancel out common factors.

G

Practice makes perfect
Let's simplify our expression. We will begin by using the Commutative Property of Multiplication to the product in the denominator and then split the fraction into factors.
3^2* 4^5* 5^3/5^3* 3^3 * 4^6
3^2* 4^5 * 5^3/3^3* 4^6 * 5^3
3^2/3^3* 4^5/4^6* 5^3/5^3
3^(2-3)* 4^(5-6)* 5^(3-3)
3^(-1)* 4^(-1)* 5^0
3^(- 1)* 4^(- 1)* 1
1/3*1/4 * 1
1/12* 1
1/12
This corresponds to option G.
