So far, so good.




Now all you need to do is use your calculator. There is one built-in to Windows (Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Calculator).

Put it into the 'Scientific' Mode. (View -> Scientific).

Enter 1.30

Click the 'x^y' button (on the left side in the middle of the array of buttons with pink legends)

Enter 0.3326

Click the '=' button

Click the '*' button

Enter 2.43

Click the '=' button

Round off the result to two decimal places.

Done.

If you aren't operating under Windows, then any good scientific calculator will do the job, but you are on your own as to how to operate it.
