The cube root of 2, times the square root of 7.
I don't know how to get the index's the same.
Thanks so much. This question is from textbook intermediate algebra

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The cube root of 2, times the square root of 7.
2^(1/3)* 7^(1/2)
You need a common denominator of the exponents. like "6"
Then convert 1/3 to 2/6 and 1/2 to 3/6.
Rewrite as 2^(2/6)* 7^(3/6)
