This expression contains a bear trap?

Question

this expression simplifies to 5/2(something), see if you jump in too early and end up with 1/2(something) as I did. Good practice..
(8a^3b^6)^(1/3)/(1/25a^4b^7)^(1/2)(16(a^4b^6)^(1/2)^-(3/2)
(We have no bears in Australia, by the way so the metaphor may have been inappropriate....koalas are some sort of mammal..)

Answer 1

Yes, koalas are marsupials, in the same classification as kangaroos and wombats. They have a pouch for their young.
