  • 6^9 * 9^6 / (6*9)^6 = 6^6 * 9^6 *6^3/ 6^6 * 9^6 = 6^3.
  • 6^3 * 9 = 6x
  • (6^3 * 9) / 6 = x
  • 6^2 * 9 = x = 6 *6 *9 = 324

6 9 × 9 6 ( 6 × 9 ) 6 × 9 = 6 x 6 9 × 9 6 6 6 × 9 6 × 9 6 3 × 6 6 × 9 6 6 6 × 9 6 × 9 6 3 × 9 = 6 x 6 2 × 9 = x x = 324 \frac{6^9 \times 9^6}{(6 \times 9)^6} \times 9=6x \implies \frac{6^9 \times 9^6}{6^6 \times 9^6} \times 9 \implies \frac{6^3 \times 6^6 \times 9^6}{6^6 \times 9^6} \times 9 \implies 6^3 \times 9=6x \implies 6^2 \times 9=x \implies x=\boxed{\large{324}}
