root+%285%2C+64x%5E12y%5E20%29

root+%285%2C+2%5E5+%2A+2+%2A+x%5E10+%2A+x%5E2+%2A+y%5E20%29

root+%285%2C+2%5E5+%2A+x%5E10+%2A+y%5E20+%2A+2+%2A+x%5E2%29

root+%285%2C+2%5E5%29 * root+%285%2C+x%5E10%29 * root+%285%2C+y%5E20%29 * root+%285%2C+2x%5E2%29

2x%5E2y%5E4+%2A+root%285%2C+2x%5E2%29

(64x^12y^20)^(1/5) =
(64x^240y)^(1/5) =
(64x)^(48y)
