Wouldn't the answer here be A since LHS is 3/5 and RHS 3/20?

The best way is to go through the process. Exponents can be tricky
A) \(\dfrac{5*3^2}{3^4} \times \dfrac{2^6}{5^2} \times \dfrac{3^3}{2^6} = \dfrac{3}{5}=0.6\)
B) \(\dfrac{3^2}{2^6} \times \dfrac{2*3*2^3}{5^2} \times \dfrac{3*5^2}{3^3} = \dfrac{3}{4}=0.75\)
\(B > A\)
A) \(\dfrac{5*3^2}{3^4} \times \dfrac{2^6}{5^2} \times \dfrac{3^3}{2^6} = \dfrac{3}{5}=0.6\)
B) \(\dfrac{3^2}{2^6} \times \dfrac{2*3*2^3}{5^2} \times \dfrac{3*5^2}{3^3} = \dfrac{3}{4}=0.75\)
\(B > A\)
