\n" ); document.write( "Easy on a calc
\n" ); document.write( "Find the log of the number, divide that by the nth, find the 10^x of that
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "For example you want the 21st root of 2,097,152
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "log(2097152) = 6.32163
\n" ); document.write( "\"632163%2F21\" = .30103
\n" ); document.write( "10^(.30103) = 2
