Step 1
The given expression is,
(56)x(512)x+(724)x
The equation is defined as the expression where two quantities are equal. As there is no another quantity whose equality is mentioned, therefore the given expression is an expression and not an equation.
Step 2
On simplifying the given expression, we get
(56)x(512)x+(724)x=(54)x(52)x+(71)x24
=20x10x+7x24
=17x24
Therefore, the simplified form of the given expression is 17x24
