Is this expression
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+%28+%2854%2F2%29%2Ax%5E4+%29%5E%281%2F3%29+\"$ ?
\n" ); document.write( "-------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "You need the general rule:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+%28+a%5Eb+%29%5Ec+=+a%5E%28+b%2Ac+%29+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "The you have the extra step:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+%28+d%2A%28+a%5Eb+%29%29%5Ec+=+d%5Ec+%2A+a%5E%28+b%2Ac%29+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "That's assuming I'm reading the expression right
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+%28+%2854%2F2%29%2Ax%5E4+%29%5E%281%2F3%29+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"++27%5E%281%2F3%29+%2A+x%5E%284%2F3%29+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+3x%5E%284%2F3%29+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "--------------------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "If I read it wrong and the expression is:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+%28+%2854%2F%282x%29%29%5E4+%29%5E%281%2F3%29+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+%28%28+27%2Fx+%29%5E4%29%5E%28+1%2F3+%29+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+%28+27%2Fx+%29%5E%284%2F3%29+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+%28%28+27%2Fx+%29%5E%281%2F3%29%29%5E4+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+%28+3%2F%28x%5E%281%2F3%29%29%29%5E4+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+81%2F%28+x%5E%284%2F3%29%29+\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+81%2Ax%5E%28+-4%2F3+%29+\"$
