Answer

$6x^{\frac{17}{20}}$

Work Step by Step

Using the rule $a^{m}\times a^{n}=a^{m+n}$, we obtain: $3x^{\frac{1}{4}}\times 2x^{\frac{3}{5}}$ $=(3\times2)\times(x^{\frac{1}{4}}\times x^{\frac{3}{5}})$ $=6(x^{\frac{1}{4}+\frac{3}{5}})$ $=6x^{\frac{1(5)+3(4)}{20}}$ $=6x^{\frac{5+12}{20}}$ $=6x^{\frac{17}{20}}$
