Answer

r

Work Step by Step

$\displaystyle \frac{7^{-1/3}\cdot 7r^{-3}}{7^{2/3}\cdot(r^{-2})^{2}}=$ ... numerator: $a^{m}\cdot a^{n}=a^{m+n}$ , ... denominator: $(a^{m})^{n}=a^{mn}$ ... $=\displaystyle \frac{7^{-1/3+1}r^{-3}}{7^{2/3}r^{-4}}$ = ...... use: $\displaystyle \frac{a^{m}}{a^{n}}=a^{m-n}$ $=7^{-1/3+3/3-2/3}\cdot r^{-3-(-4)}$ $=7^{0}r^{-3+4}$ $=1\cdot r^{1}$ $=r$
