<PRE><B>Question 181037</B>
ahhhhhhhh exponents...... the way to write a number with an exponent is like this           x to the 8 power would be written
:
x^8
:
now for your problems
:

:#112

a ½ b5/8  
a 1/4b3/8

#114

(x5/3y1/3z2/3)
       3/5	
112  answer is {{{a^(1/4) b^(1/4)}}}    In  division when the base is the same, the exponent in the demoninator is subracted from the exponent in the numerator so 1/2-1/4=1/4
5/8-3/8=2/8=1/4
:
114) you simply invert the bottom fraction and multiply
:
so you would have {{{(5x^(5/3)y^(1/3)z^(2/3))/3}}}
