$\frac{\log_{3} (a)}{2} + \frac{\log_{3} (b)}{2} + \frac{\log_{3} (c)}{2}$

Step 1

Combine the numerators over the common denominator.

$\frac{\log_{3} (a) + \log_{3} (b) + \log_{3} (c)}{2}$

Step 2

Use the product property of logarithms, $\log_{b} (x) + \log_{b} (y) = \log_{b} (x y)$ .

$\frac{\log_{3} (a b) + \log_{3} (c)}{2}$

Step 3

Use the product property of logarithms, $\log_{b} (x) + \log_{b} (y) = \log_{b} (x y)$ .

$\frac{\log_{3} (a b c)}{2}$

Step 4

Rewrite $\frac{\log_{3} (a b c)}{2}$ as $\frac{1}{2} \log_{3} (a b c)$ .

$\frac{1}{2} \log_{3} (a b c)$

Step 5

Simplify $\frac{1}{2} \log_{3} (a b c)$ by moving $\frac{1}{2}$ inside the logarithm.

$\log_{3} ({(a b c)}^{\frac{1}{2}})$

Step 6

Use the power rule ${(a b)}^{n} = a^{n} b^{n}$ to distribute the exponent.
