Question 1002240: Is it possible to square root a square root?
My problem:

***find (fof) (1)
I deduced that the answer is seven (square root) 7 times the square root of 1
Can I simplify this any more?

Use rational exponents instead of radical symbolism.
7%287%2Ax%5E%281%2F2%29%29%5E%281%2F2%29

7%287%5E%281%2F2%29%2Ax%5E%281%2F4%29%29------probably does not display properly through this site.
