#= 162 xy^10z^12#

Explanation:

#(3y^2z^3)xx3(2xy^4z^3)#

Remove the brackets

#rarr# for the first one all the factors have go be cubed.
#rarr# for the second, multiply by #3#

#=27y^6z^9xx6xy^4z^3" "larr # now multiply as usual

To multiply in algebra:

  • multiply the signs
  • multiply the numbers
  • add the indices of like bases.

#27y^6z^9xx6xy^4z^3#

#= 162 xy^10z^12#
