Steps to Solve

  1. Expand the Expression
    First, we will expand each part of the expression:
    $$(2a^3) \cdot (2h^4)^3 \cdot [(-2g^4h)^3]^2$$

  2. Calculate Each Term
    For $(2h^4)^3$, we apply the power rule:
    $$(2h^4)^3 = 2^3 \cdot (h^4)^3 = 8h^{12}$$
    For $(-2g^4h)^3$, we apply the same rules:
    $$(-2g^4h)^3 = (-2)^3 \cdot (g^4)^3 \cdot h^3 = -8g^{12}h^3$$

  3. Square the Result
    Now we need to square the result from the last term:
    $$[(-2g^4h)^3]^2 = (-8g^{12}h^3)^2 = 64g^{24}h^6$$

  4. Combine All Terms
    Now substitute the expanded results into the expression:
    $$(2a^3) \cdot (8h^{12}) \cdot (64g^{24}h^6)$$

  5. Calculate the Coefficients
    Combine the numbers (coefficients) together:
    $$2 \cdot 8 \cdot 64 = 1024$$

  6. Combine the Variables
    Now combine the variable parts:

  • For $h$: $h^{12} \cdot h^6 = h^{12+6} = h^{18}$
  • The rest stays the same.

The combined final result is: $$1024 a^3 g^{24} h^{18}$$

The final answer is:
$$1024 a^3 g^{24} h^{18}$$

Tips

  • Neglecting to multiply coefficients when expanding expressions.
  • Forgetting to add exponents of the same base correctly.
  • Misapplying the exponent rules, especially when dealing with negative bases.
