Answer: Option B
Solution(By Examveda Team)
$$\eqalign{ & {\text{Let }}{8^{2.4}} \times {2^{3.7}} \div {\left( {16} \right)^{1.3}} = {2^x} \cr & {\text{Then,}}{\left( {{2^3}} \right)^{2.4}} \times {2^{3.7}} \div {\left( {{2^4}} \right)^{1.3}} = {2^x} \cr & \Leftrightarrow {2^{\left( {3 \times 2.4} \right)}} \times {2^{3.7}} \div {2^{\left( {4 \times 1.3} \right)}} = {2^x} \cr & \Leftrightarrow {2^{7.2}} \times {2^{3.7}} \div {2^{5.2}} = {2^x} \cr & \Leftrightarrow {2^x} = {2^{\left( {7.2 + 3.7 - 5.2} \right)}} \cr & \Leftrightarrow {2^x} = {2^{5.7}} \cr & \Leftrightarrow x = 5.7 \cr} $$Related Questions on Surds and Indices
