\n" ); document.write( "[(32)^(1/10)] / [(4)^(1/8)]
\n" ); document.write( "----------
\n" ); document.write( "= [(2^5)^(1/10)] / [(2^2)^(1/8)]
\n" ); document.write( "----------
\n" ); document.write( "= [(2)^(1/2)] / [(2)^(1/4)]
\n" ); document.write( "----------
\n" ); document.write( "= 2^(1/4)
