Multiple Choice

A quality control technician is calculating the structural integrity of a component using the radical expression (−49a34)(327a24)(-4\sqrt[4]{9a^3})(3\sqrt[4]{27a^2}). During the simplification process, the technician multiplies the terms to arrive at the intermediate form −12243a54-12\sqrt[4]{243a^5}. To complete the simplification, the technician must identify the largest factor of the radicand that is a perfect fourth power. Which of the following is that factor?
