You can put this solution on YOUR website!
16^(3/4)
\n" ); document.write( "find the 4th root of 16, that is 2, right
\n" ); document.write( "then
\n" ); document.write( "2^3 which is 8
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "You can do it the other way too, but will need a calc
\n" ); document.write( "find 16^3 = 4096
\n" ); document.write( "then
\n" ); document.write( "find the 4th root of 4096, \"4096%5E%281%2F4%29\" on a calc = 8 also
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
